$3 mil X 365 = $1,095,000,000
6 HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR is about 70% (70% were Americans.)

Very true. I'm used to all of the anti-American hatred. I realize that it's mostly envy. Think about the people who hate us, they either live in caves and wear dresses with scarves around their heads or in countries of Europe or in Canada where certain losers just envy the hell out of us. They really don't have much of a life at all.
It's not all Europeans or Canadians...you will see that it is only the ones that don't really have much going on in their lives - the unsuccessful, insignificant ones. And I can't say I blame them...

Do you think these sites want to ban US players?
IMO, I think you are directing your anger and indignation in the wrong direction.
Ditto - it's not the poker sites denying Americans their freedom (re: Republican radicals) or the rest of the world that needs to stand up on their behalf (re: Democrat "opposition").

New sites are already popping up - http://okusapoker.com for example. There will be plenty more.
Most of the sites that are closing to Americans will struggle to survive. You'll see. Even Party Poker will go from #1 to out of the Top 10 or 20 within a few months. 70% of it's players were Americans!

chane - I bet if you run a poll, just very, very slightly* more than half of the US players here would go back, if and when the restraints are lifted. But I might be wrong.

You are probably right. Most of them like in any country, don't really care about anything else but themselves as you will see in the responses below yours.
These fuckin idiots would sell their soul for a couple hundred bucks. Their pride and dignity for $50 or so and their freedom for about $25.
Our congressmen and big businessmen love such puppets. These citizens lead insignificant lives and wouldn't fight for anything. They are EXACTLY what's wrong with this country.
