I was hoping this might mean a change in philosophy toward US customers. Upon reading the press release on Partygaming.com it appears they do not plan to let US customers back into the sportsbook.

THAT SUCKS!

I was only with them for a year before they cutoff US customers and they had some great lines and offerings.

I am surprised they even went through with it given the climate. I know they aren't taking US customers now, but Gamebookers did in the past and might give US goverment a hook to go after them. I know that is reaching a bit, but in the current climate who knows.
