This just happened today. Pinnacle sportsbook and casino stopped taking US bets. Wow this is huge news especially since they stopped all bets right before the Super Bowl. There must be something really worrying them. Here is the full news piece.
Pinnacle Sports closes to USLater,

Me personally I like to play at
Pokerstars.com because they are now the biggest and I really like the big tournaments they run. Lately I haven't been playing too much. To me it's just gotten a little boring and the money you win doesn't offset the risk you have to take. For me to get a rush or for it to be worth it I have to play $10/$20 or above and I don't care to do that online. There is too much collusion at those stakes. Im one to believe if you're not playing mid to low stakes online poker it's tough to win a lot because of all the cheaters.

It's funny when I made this post things were a lost different. The only way for me to keep track of which poker sites are taking americans is to keep update this page
www.Compatiblepoker.com/usa.phpThings changed dramatically and in the post below I said Paradise was open and Poker stars was not. That's all changed now.
Party Poker, Poker Stars, and 888 just pulled out of the online poker market. ParadisePoker.com said they will STAY until their time is up.
Some theories are going around that maybe its a good thing that these big sites are pulling out. It will make people aware of the banning and vote accordingly come time for elections.
Really, this whole thing makes me so mad its hard to write. How frustrating is this. Im having a hard time mustering up something to type because I just want to drive up to where ever it is Bill Frist lives and ask him what the fuck his problem is.
I mean seriously is your future agenda really worth pissing off millions of people to get your way. What kind of selfish tyrant is this fucking guy.
Thank you ParadisePoker for having the balls to stay open, even if it's just for a little while.

Is it just me or is $5,000 hands of BlackJack at
www.Vipcasino.com absolutely off the wall crazy! They've got a special high limit table just for the ballers. I mean holy friggen crap that's insane. Playing $5 hands of BJ is tooo much for me let alone $100, but $5,000 is just absurd and I've seen some people play these
high stakes blackjack online games before.
I was reading an article on John Daly and how he plays a lot of high stakes blackjack online. Actually he mostly plays it at live casinos but I think he mentioned how you could play online just as easy. So I take it that referenced himself as a high stakes BJ player online.
Million dollar swings were nothing to Daly during his prime. The guy would guy up and down 2 or 3 million in a night. Endorsements and contracts supposedly kept him a float because his tournament winnings couldnt cover the $40 million loss he had at the casino. He talked about how if he would just leave in the first hour he played he would be up a lot. But, like all of us he was pretty addicted. For him it was an escape from reality similiar to what golf was to him. He said he could literally forget where he was an all the sudden 10 hours were gone.
Because this subject is quite rare I went through with adding a
High Stakes Blackjack section to our high stakes casino page. Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Ill stick to poker and leave these games for the rich because christ I can't even afford the $1 games anymore.

If you read this blog alot you probably remember the article about that huge cash game played online. Well after writing the article I got so many visitors asking me where the best places were to play high stakes poker so I wrote up a quick
review of high stakes poker rooms.
In the article I weeded out all the sites that have high stakes poker but don't have a lot of traffic. Traffic is the most important thing when you're looking for a high stakes poker room.
The article I wrote about the high stakes game played between bad_ip and fast_freddie ended up getting published all over the internet. Its amazing how many people are talking about it. Supposedly bad_ip bounced back from that $800,000 loss that night but Jesus that's a big hit.
I'm still a little skeptical of the game. If you dont' know what I'm talking about then here is the full article again.
http://www.compatiblepoker.com/%24200+-+400+NL+Internet+Cash+Games+Reaches+%24800%2C000.new.htmTo me it almost seemed staged but what the hell do I know. What would the guy pretend he was freddie deebs? It just doesnt make sense unless they were trying to get publicity for the poker room.
Either way hope you enjoy the articles because I'm off to bed.
Roger
