Online Poker?

I was wondering what the law is that bans online gambling in the us, what are the penalties of still playing online? Are there still sites that will take my money to play real poker online? How do these sites get away with not following the new law?

Online Poker?
It is now more difficult to get your money in and out of the sites. It has always been illegal in the US that is why you are dealing with companies that are located out of the states. The financial companies that handle the transactions are now pulling out and not accepting any more US based transactions. You can avoid this by getting a pre-paid Visa or Mastercard and then just add funds or pulling them off this card. It will be intersting to see how it goes forward since on a lot of the big sites you can watch the pros playing everyday so they are constantly challenging the law. See the website below it is a good source of info. Many feel that poker is a game of skill that should not be regulated like slots, keno or games of luck. Don't worry they have more crimes to fight than to get your $300 bucks you play on-line poker with.
