This day will be etched in my memory like most people have pearl harbor etched in there minds.![]()
On October 13, 2006 the port bill was signed by dictator George Bush.![]()
I for one will never forget the sneaky underhanded way that those republicans got this bill passed. It was on a Friday night after all the opposer's of that bill went home for the weekend.
A lot of Sportsbooks and online poker sites left the U.S. market. The DOJ arrests the Neteller Co-founders, and other processors stop accepting U.S. players transactions, and the list goes on and on.
Even despite this bill passing most of us U.S. found a way to get our funds to and from those remaining books out there that still accept U.S. clients, however it's like jumping through hoops.
I think we all pretty much know how it was from the players standpoint, but I sure like to know how the past year went from a books standpoint in regards to loss of revenue. Like the cost of operation via the money transfers, the troubles of acquiring alternate processing options, ect, ect.
