Default Poker Champs closed to US Customers

I saw a Pokerchamps banner flashing overhead and wondered if anyone else had go the email that Poker Champs was not accepting any more US Customers because of the recent rulings that have come down? I havent played there except for some freerolls in my early days as a player. A few people I know had to move their money off the site.

I also heard that any rooms on the B2B networks were closing down to US Customers. Not sure if i have any of those sites.

For us USA'ers please join the Poker players Alliance and email your congressman. My local rep voted for the ban of online gaming. I didnt vote for him in the first place and he definitely wont be getting my vote.

Right on, Irongirl! You're exercising your right to make a difference with voting. Wish more people would do that.

I was not a user at the casino but I play pokerchamps league games at titan poker. I thought they were directly connected but I'm not sure.

I live in the U.S., and I got an email about that change from the league, and I can still play with them. they merged with tony G's poker league or something like that.

I'm not really sure of the details but their forum is still there and we're not blocked from that.

Default yeah

I have already done that and emailed my congressmen and all that, its weird that some sites have shutdown to US customers but not others, hopefully we will get on the ball and realize that we can make the game better. If we tax it so much the better, but if we had our own sites i would trust them so much more on being fair. I know we do a great job with vegas so it would definately help the online gaming world.

I'm pretty sure I can't play at the casino, and I thought the league was directly connected, but the league didn't kick me out. I played with them at titan the other night.
