Thx tucum, funnily enough Friday the 13th is one of my most favourite days, I will have to make a Frist & Bush doll to practice my voodoo on.

this may be a dumb question, but what happens if this bill passes, and you already have money on site like party poker, what happens then, do you just lose your money or what?

Most sites will send an e-mail saying that they are closing your account and that you should get your money out. (and give you a date to do it by)
I suppose if you don't do it in time they do keep your cash.

i have allready pulled mine out because i deposited with firepay and on there site they said as soon as itwas signed they would no longer deposit to online gambling sites and in ten days they would no longer accept payouts from on line gaming sites so i pulled mine and hope it is in my account in time to deposit it in one of the sites that is still accepting us players
