All that is done - all the better! I think this is just the beginning.
 
I meant the international tournaments like EPT or PCA might be available for NJ via pokerstars, at least that is what i am hoping
 
Now we will see giant fields online, and the level the game will increase too, I believe.
 
Good news for New Jersey!hope they can play online tounament with me together, before have some of poker friend there, really miss that ...

Wondering if PS would be offering qualifiers for international games. Would love to go to NJ, qualify for something that would make it worthwhile to go to the Bahamas just to play.

That'd be a nice perk. I see no reason why they couldn't in terms of the law, unless there's some prohibition on awarding seats to a tournament outside of the jurisdiction.

I think the question would be if there's sufficient interest and player pool in NJ to support one or more satellites to the PCA. They could really build it up with advertising, and run a mega path to get lots of people involved. Then put up a satty with 1 seat guaranteed, so even if there's an overlay, Pokerstars still gets their first NJ player at the PCA, and that if that player goes deep, what marketing that'll be.
 
It`s not fair to stop online poker in USA.Politics is undead or zombie or somethink bad at all!But it`s impossible live without them in this stupid system of greed and authority.
 
Anyone else get the feeling that many posters in this thread have difficulty comprehending English? (even those from USA & UK... perhaps English isn't their first language?)

It's a step.... but a small one. ie. fields on Stars aren't going to grow, US players are segragated from the ROW

go ps cant wait till florida approves online poker I think it will be soon

I am with you on this. Spend a lot of time in Florida as I am a snowbird. It would be a good way to pass the winter.
 
My input.

The reason online poker is banned from sites is because the government couldn't tax the players winnings. Lets hope pokerstars makes it big in New Jersey and keeps in line with the government.

Unlikely. Go back and look at total online poker revenue during the height of the poker boom. If you assume an unlikely 50% tax rate, it still doesn't amount to tip money for the federal government or even the larger states.

Now, consider the pending investigation of DFS, which is taxed, and you'll see that tax revenue isn't an issue. As long as Pokerstars operates in a regulated state,
they'll have no problem . . . assuming that anti-gambling types don't push through regressive legislation at the federal level.

Cheers!
 
I'm going to stay in a weekly motel!!!

I'd like to stay in a motel outside of Atlantic City and play!!! I deposit at the Ceasars cage into wsop, I would love to add PokerStars to the sites I play at!!!!🙂
 
NY just banned Fantasy Sports - more will follow.

One guy said Florida would come online soon. I don't see that happening.
 
With NY banning DFS but NJ just accepting Stars, I'm cautiously optimistic for poker to come back to the US at large sometime in the future, but it won't be soon 🙁
 
Anyone has more updated info about the specific date or something like that about this Pokerstars coming to NJ news??
 
does anyone understand why theres currently several online pokerrooms that you can play in from all usa states but the biggest ones - pokerstars etc can't offer the same thing?

i'de love to play on pokerstars again, been waiting ever since the shutdown fiasco
