U.S. Poker Rooms

The UIGEA

Since the introduction of the UIGEA (Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement) in 2006, it has been more difficult for U.S. residents to play online poker. The act prohibited transferring funds from financial institutions to online gambling sites. Most online poker rooms and casinos had to withdraw from the American market in the result.

Is online poker legal in the U.S.?

It is not illegal to play poker if you are American {besides a few states}. You just have a limited choice of poker rooms you can play at. Poker rooms that do not comply with the new law do not accept U.S. players. You do not have to worry about going to jail or having to pay fines.
