Message: [QUOTE="dmorris68, post: 2074653, member: 40397"] Again, re-read my post that you replied to. Playing online poker has [b]never[/b] been banned or made illegal at the federal level. UIGEA had nothing to do with players, in fact UIGEA did not rule any form of gaming legal or illegal, it only made the processing of funds in connection with any form of gambling already deemed illegal by any other legislation. The DOJ liked to use the Wire Act as its basis for the UIGEA applying to OLP, but in fact they themselves came out after Black Friday and stated that the Wire Act [u]does not[/u] apply to OLP (which many of us had been arguing for years, since it was written way before the internet was invented and specifically addresses interstate sports betting).
