While the future is still speculative at best, the future of legal online poker in the United States is certainly brighter than it has been in the past two years.

As many of you already know bodog poker have had an estimate of 8 weeks before payments have been issued to players.

They are working very hard on this and they announced today that the payout delay now are down to 4 weeks.

Also they are working even harder to shrink those 4 weeks to less but exactly how low is hard to say.

If you have any questions about bodog and payouts please post about it here.

Thanks

The immediate impact in the market (Online Poker) was a positive one, suggesting that investors believe the elections will increase the potential for legal, regulated online gaming in the US.

Obama victory may lead to more open markets in the US.

Cool movie and recommends it to anyone that likes texas holdem or poker in general.
Great movie, a little naive with respect to the game but it is for the general public, excellent John Malkovich and the poker tell is hilarious, girl friend boring, best friend so dangerous to be with...Memorable.

Right now, the Poker Players Alliance (PPA) is preparing for a potential lawsuit against the UIGEA because its vagueness will likely force banks and other payment processors to over-block lawful Internet poker transactions.

Patrick Antonius has the last months lost alot of money playing online poker, especially on full tilt poker. He had a strong positon earlier this year and made alot instead of losing. Wonder what's going on, or maybe his competitors reads him better now and has changed their strategy while playing with Patrick.

What do you think, has the other top players begun to understand his strategy ?
