Humph
Not sure what to make of all the recent announcements about Neteller, I don't live in the US, but the US market is huge for poker and I can see the impacts that this will have longer term. So, when are the next US elections for the top job? Also, if some of our American friends could let me know, would this have happened with the recent changes in the House of Reps, i.e would the bill have passed? What is the likelihood of it being overturned?
There are a number of European sites out there and I have started to investigate what others I could be playing on, none have the options or advantages or the US sites and from experience it is kinda annoying playing on sites where all the chat is in German, French or Spanish not knowing a word of it. On the positive I guess it just sucks for the US players, from Australia I can still play anywhere, and will probably play on UK sites, WillHill etc as the numbers start to dwindle on Full Tilt and Poker Stars etc. Hopefully we will start to get some focus more tournaments in Australian times instead of 1-4am Australian timeI I have not seen to much of this impact yet, 7K players last night at 5am ET 9PM AEDT a drop of about 2K from what I am used to...hhhmm... ¶ Friday, January 19, 2007
