Yeah, I've been following this for a couple of says... it's pretty laughable, to be honest.
I mean, they are asking the ISPs to block 200ish gambling sites, including Full Tilt, PARTY (and many others that don't even take US customers), but not Stars, for example. Obviously they just threw some darts at names of "gambling sites" and are being stupid. They also say they are trying to protect their citizens (from themselves, apparently), but at the same time are warning them that they aren't going to be able to get their money back if they don't hurry and cash out now. It's absurd. I don't expect this to amount to anything, but we shall see... |

I read an article on this, you american players are having a bad time of it at the moment but in this case i really wouldn't worry, its gotta be laughable as included in the 200 domains is PokerRoom which didn't accept us players and has now closed and is now bwin which isn't listed in that 200.

I didn't read the entire articles but my first thought was "Okay, so the folks can't get to fulltiltpoker.com but if they've got the software already installed then they should still be able to connect as I'm pretty sure that the servers the client connects to don't resolve to fulltiltpoker.com."
Maybe they do, I don't know - I've never bothered to check. But even if they did, that's an easy enough change. Not to mention that Andy Bloch just bought up a few other domains such as fulltwitpoker that could be used as a redirect. |
