/Entertainment News Articles/ - June 05, 2008 - www.PokerEcheck.com is excited to announce new content that addresses the current laws regarding US poker, US friendly poker rooms, and us poker deposit options.
Many US poker players have found it difficult to play online poker since the UIGEA(Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act) was passed in 2006. There are still misconceptions about the legality and access to online poker. According to legal experts who have reviewed and interpreted the law, playing online poker is in fact legal in the US. The UIGEA was designed to make depositing onto US online poker rooms extremely difficult, it does not make any act of the playing poker or depositing illegal. It should be stressed that this law does not address players or prohibit any form of online poker. The main target of this law was aimed at financial institutions, where it makes specific regulations against banks knowingly facilitating transactions onto gambling sites of any kind. It also prohibits any site that is under the jurisdiction of US law from accepting deposits from US players. This is why all of these sites are located and operated offshore.
This law has no doubt made deposing more difficult, but not impossible. There are plenty of us poker deposit options for online poker available today. The easiest of which are Poker Echecks, which are similar to paper check and carry many of the same protections of paper checks, the main difference is they are electronic. According to reviews they are easy, fast and safe to use. You simply need your account information, including your account and routing number, which can be found on your check. Once this information is entered and submitted along with the amount you wish to deposit, your funds will immediately be available for play.
The UIGEA also had an effect on the US online poker market because many large poker rooms left the US market after the passage of this law, mainly because of fiduciary responsibilities to shareholders. However, there are still many us friendly poker rooms that are here to stay. www.PokerEcheck.com has listed the top five us friendly poker rooms along with deposit bonuses and us deposit options.
