fleung22 1 Posted October 13, 2006 Author Share Posted October 13, 2006 Pokerstars is here to stay, they announced it the other day.Oh sweet...and now the transfer begins. The Canadian Consulate's relationship with America is too strong. We will follow suite! Link to post Share on other sites
GWCGWC 83 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 It's hard to believe Stars isn't offering a re-deposit bonus. I guess when you're as good as they are, you can afford to be that cocky.Party sucked ass anyway. I hated that site. Link to post Share on other sites
sealster 0 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Why would the offer a bonus now when very few players are going to leave them and most people who played party mainly will move there without needing a bonus option since it's the biggest site left out there.

KoRnholio 2 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I think a lot of people are going to Pokerstars. Last night I was looking for some PL Omaha games. Party had like 5 total up at the $25 and $50 level, while Stars had about 9 just at the $50 level. Link to post Share on other sites

nutzbuster 7 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Following an in-depth analysis of the situation and extensive legal consultation, bwin has decided to comply with the new legislation and will no longer accept any new US-resident customers for its real money gaming products, effective immediately. The company is working on technical arrangements that will prevent existing customers from accessing its real money games. Until further notice, bwin will only be offering a ”play money“ line-up to the US market. The greatly increased risk of prosecution by the US authorities, the considerable pressure on banks and payment providers coupled with the requirements for publicly listed companies leave the company no other option.For the year 2006 the Ongame customer base also includes some 177,000 active real money customers not resident in the US. In addition, the majority of customers in Ongame’s poker network are from Europe. In Q2 2006, the former Ongame customer portfolio generated gross gaming revenue of EUR 29.0 million. EUR 9.3 million or 32 percent of the gross gaming revenue were generated from customers not resident in the US. Cumulative gross gaming revenue of the bwin group amounted to EUR 94.3 million in Q2 2006; as leading provider of online gaming entertainment in continental Europe, bwin generated 79 percent of its gross gaming revenue through customers not living in the US in Q2 2006.bwin customers not resident in the USA are not affected at all by these legislative changes in the United States, and can continue to enjoy the full range of bwin products. Just...........wow..................Edit: I mostly play live anyway and will now do that almost exclusively until the smoke clears. THis is just a horrible day....GL to all.

profxavier9 0 Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 anyone who plays poker on line should have an account on stars. Im glad to see party fall off anyways. The only thing they had going for them was head traffic and lots of fish. But it will be interesting to see what happens with all their MONSTER tournaments, there could be some SERIOUS overlay, i wouldnt be suprised to see them back out or make the pools smalller.
