Have been trying to organise acash game on Xbox live on a gaming forum. The mods have come down heavy handed on it citing 'legal implications' such as age limit that the site could be held liable for.

 

Thoughts? I reckon its bollocks

pretty sure I'm right.

 

the rules toonpants presented were General rules and didn't make mention of this, quite particular, scenario.

 

I'm pretty sure I'm right.

I will bet you 100 quid and give you odds of ten to one that you are wrong.

 

Having had my nose stuck in Harrington all week, I'm tempted to take you up on that offer, even though I know it's wrong.

Think I noticed that thread on ntsc. The way US legislation is going at the moment, they're right to play it safe, just organise ordinary :good: fun :lol: games on the forum and then offer people into the :D back-room <_< when they're playing.

He's wrong, I think The Fish is getting confused with Texas hold 'um and Omaha.

G-man they have released a Java Mac client for Party Poker now, I can dig the link out if you want it

 

Don't really like Party Poker meself, Pokerroom is probably the best I've played on.

Is it real money for SNGs now, spongebob, or just for the ring games? I knew they had an instant play/no download version, but it was either play money or ring games last time I saw it - no tournaments. I'll defo have a look at it though, cheers.

You could be right, I saw something on a poker site but didnt look at it in any depth

No bother, I'll have another look tonight and check. They say they'll be adding tournaments soon or something, so hopefully it'll be updated before too long if not yet.

Shocking news this weekend as America makes online poker illegal

 

Party have already announced banning US players and other main sites expected to follow.

 

The player pool has just diminished by 75% which means the games will get a shit load harder to beat.

 

God Bless America, the land of the free

Aye, I heard mention of that on the radio this morning. What a joke. You can give your money away to evangelists with credit card hotlines, but you can't use it to make money playing a game

 

There must be some ways that the yanks have of planning to get round this, surely?

 

This will actually take away some people's livelihoods, I suppose. Nice.

The big problem is the players who know what they are doing will be able to get round it, but the recreational fish wont.

 

It seems amazing that they can do this, but the cynic in me thinks we will see the big American Casinos being liscenced by the us govt soon.

 

Interseting times ahead I think

Well that's a surprisingly hard-line Muslim thing for the Yanks to be doing.

 

Anyone fancy pointing that out to them? :lol:
