Macintosh Poker Players Get USA List of Accepted Poker Rooms

Some Mac compatible poker rooms have issued statements that they will stay open to American / Mac poker players. Mac poker enthusiasts have just been set back to where they started 2 years ago.

(PRWEB) October 14, 2006 -- Compatiblepoker.com announced its new webpage that will tell Mac users what Mac compatible poker rooms will stay open to American players at www.compatiblepoker.com/Mac+Online+Poker.cms.htm. Players will notice a USA flag in the USA column representing that the site has taken legal advice and decided to stay open. This page has been newly issued for Mac users.

One of the notable Mac compatible poker rooms on the page release that is no longer open Americans is PokerRoom.com. They are currently working out the technical aspects to stop Americans from playing at their site. This will hit the Mac community hard as PokerRoom was the first site to become Mac compatible almost 10 years ago.

The President of the United States signed the bill to make transactions difficult for online poker players residing in the USA. According to various articles this doesn’t mean it will be illegal to play Internet poker but instead illegal for certain sites to accept transactions from USA players 270 days from now.

Banks and financial institutions have 270 days in which poker sites must comply which is why we still see some sites accepting US players during this period. The list of poker rooms taking aboard American players is here www.compatiblepoker.com/usa.php

Party Poker also announced on Friday the 13th that US Citizens can no longer log in and play real money games from the United States. This will cripple the giant and we saw stock prices plummet the week before closing to Americans.

Compatiblepoker.com’s Mac compatible poker guide says they will remain open as a reference website to let players know what is going on in the online poker arena. Continued efforts will be put into the site announcing press releases of major Mac poker sites and their plans for the future. (www.Compatiblepoker.com)
