- All internet gambling in the US has been banned recently. Sorry.
- If you live in the United States and plan on betting money, there is NO legal site to player poker for money. Otherwise, if you just want to play for the fun try Yahoo games or Pogo.
- It isn't illegal for US players to play online poker. Nothing in the recently passed law makes it illegal. http://www.ultimatepokerbankroll.com has a large list of sites that Americans can still play on, plus some exclusive offers for players who play through them like rakeback and cash bonuses.

- Here is a summary of what is going on with online gambling in the United States. 1) Prior to the passing of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006, eleven states had laws on the books that specifically ban all forms of online gambling. These states are: IL, IN, LA, MI, NJ, NV, NY, OR, SD, WA, WI. Online gambling continues to be considered illegal in these states by these state governments. (It should be noted that I have NEVER heard of any player in any of these states being prosecuted under these state laws.) 2) The Act did nothing to alter, curtail, or extend state laws regarding online gambling. Thus, it did not make online gambling illegal in all states. 3) The Act places restrictions on the financial transactions that occur in connection with online gambling; it restricts electronic fund transfers and the use of credit cards in connection with such wagering. This means that players can no longer make wagers, or collect winnings using electronic fund transfers, credit or debit cards, or some other online payment systems. In response to the Act, online gambling sites have done one of three things with respect to US-based real-money players: 1) Continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states 2) Accept US-based real-money players from states other than the states in which online gambling is specifically outlawed (meaning no players from the states listed above) 3) Closed their site to all US-based real-money players Here is a list of all gaming sites that continue to accept US-based real-money players from all states: http://theonlinecasinogamblingdirectory.com/s.php?as_usa=1&SRC=YahooAnswers Players that live outside of the restricted states (listed above) have more gaming sites available to them: http://theonlinecasinogamblingdirectory.com/s.php?as_usa=2&SRC=YahooAnswers And players outside of the United States have the most options available to them: http://theonlinecasinogamblingdirectory.com/s.php?SRC=YahooAnswers These lists are updated daily as gaming sites establish and publish their policy with respect to US-based real-money players. Best of luck!

- Hi, Like you, I was looking for the best online casino a few months ago. I eventually joined one of the most experienced gaming operators in the world. It is a well-known fact that players put faith in sites that have built up a reputation of honesty and reliability. River Belle has over 10 years expertise in bringing clients the biggest, best and latest games and promotions around. I've been winning, their bonuses are the best and I highly recommend them as the best online casino. http://tinyurl.com/yhk27l
