Let's consider for a moment the impact that "poker prohibition" has had thus far. The purpose of the UIGEA and the US Division of Justice was to cut off the flow of cash to gambling web sites, and hopefully bully the US facing websites into closing their doors to US consumers. Let's grade them.

1. Reduce off money to on the web poker web sites. Total failure. Just a few days ago I was in a position to develop an Epassporte account, deposit to it with my bank issued Visa Debit card, and have funds on Absolute Poker within about 15 minutes following beginning the whole process.

two. Bully US facing poker web sites into closing their doors to US players. I'd have to give them a "D" here for beneath average. They got Celebration Poker to close and a handful of smaller internet sites. The fact that Poker Stars, Complete Tilt, Absolute, Ultimate Bet, Bodog and other folks stay open to US players, is concrete evidence that legal issues facing online poker have not had the preferred effect.

So what has the ban accomplished?

1. They produced it challenging for us to get our winnings in our pockets. You cannot pay taxes on my if you can't get them to your bank.

two  They brought on the most respected and reliable e-wallet, Neteller, to shut down it's US operations, thereby providing space for scam operations to pop up. Superb.

The vast majority of US citizens feel that online poker should not be banned. I guess government by the individuals and for the individuals is an outdated slogan. If you're a citizen here and want to get your on the web poker repair, there are still a lot of Poker Internet sites that accept US players and Casino Internet sites that accept US players. As noted above, if you are seeking for a strategy to get income to a poker internet site, Epassporte looks to be a good solution at least for funding your account. Withdrawal times are a bit slow, but I suspect if they continue to operate with the USA customers, this e-wallet will become a lot more productive.
