Due to the passage of anti-Internet gambling legislation in the U.S.
Congress Sept. 30, several larger online poker networks are tem****arily
suspending U.S. players from playing at their sites.
See Our list of poker sites still open to U.S. players

We have listed more poker rooms.
All poker rooms confirm they will accept US players without any
restriction.
Poker Rooms "undecided" like pokerroom.com are out 'till they take a
decision.
We need things like this from Planet Poker:
"Planet Poker's Statement to the US Safe ****t Act.
Planet Poker is located and operated in Curacao which is part of the
Netherlands Antilles. Planet Poker does not have owner****p or
operations in the USA. Planet Poker has a fully authorized gaming
operation license issued by the Curacao government. All aspects of
operations and business conduct are endorsed and sanctioned by the
Curacao government. Any bets placed by you are received and processed
by Planet Poker in Curacao where accepting your bet is fully legal
under Planet Poker's license. Customer records are held confidentially
by Planet Poker, not the Curacao government.
On 30 September 2006, as part of approving the Safe ****t Act, the U.S.
Congress passed an act relating to internet gambling. Analysts re****t
that when this act is signed by the President, changes will be enforced
on the banking community to restrict financial transactions with
internet gaming companies. It is unclear at this point how this new law
may affect the banking organizations but financial processors are
re****ting that they anticipate having 270 days to seek clarification on
the interpretation of the law.
The good news is that the legal community is re****ting that the law
does not target individuals and does not make it illegal for
individuals to participate in online gaming. Additionally, with poker
being identified as a game of skill, many legal experts feel that there
is a reasonable chance that poker may eventually be excluded from the
new law.
As always, your funds are secure and guaranteed with Planet Poker and
until the banking community starts to understand the impact of the new
law over the next several months it is business as usual. Planet Poker
will ensure that its customers continue to receive the high quality of
financial service that they have enjoyed for the past 7 years. You can
rest assured that Planet Poker will be talking steps to make sure you
have access to the site and be able to make deposits and withdrawals on
a regular basis. Good luck at the tables!"
We have also a list of online casinos with no restrictions to US
Players, and some offer a extra hour to play you favorite game and
whatever you win you keep it!
