FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Online Casino Ban in U.S.A. - What Casinos Are Left Open for USA? JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. - Oct. 16, 2006 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The casino ban that went through with the signature of President Bush shocked the gambling world. Stunned U.S. casino player accounts were closed and CompatiblePoker releases a guide of casinos still open to U.S. players after the gambling ban. *(PHOTO: Send2Press.com/mediaroom/1006-USAcasino_72dpi.jpg) A guide to show U.S. casino players which online casinos were still open to U.S. players was released today at www.Compatiblepoker.com/us.cms.htm. The guide talks about casinos which have told players through emails and press releases that they will not be going anywhere now that the casino ban is in effect. There is one casino announced on the list which is set up to increase player traffic enormously. The first casino listed in the guide has both a casino, sportsbook, and poker room. The owner is already a billionaire and CompatiblePoker suspects most players will go to that casino because of its reputation. In the launch of the series of guides for U.S. casino players was the U.S.A. online poker guide. The list at www.compatiblepoker.com/usa.php describes all the poker rooms taking and not accepting U.S.A. players. There are about 5 or so big wig poker rooms still standing their ground for the U.S.A. market. CompatiblePoker expects some to drop out and possibly a few others to re-enter the U.S.A. market. Poker Stars was one of the poker sites people thought would shut down. Instead CompatiblePoker reported that they reversed any negative feelings toward the U.S.A. market and are now back offering U.S. poker players their software for real money games. You will notice Poker Stars is the first on the list at www.compatiblepoker.com/usa.php because their new deposit bonus of $50 for U.S. players alike. On the guides short explanations of deposit methods were also talked about. U.S. online casino and poker players need certain 3rd party deposit methods like Neteller to stay open. Apparently CompatiblePoker reports that Neteller is fully functional as of right now and Firepay is not accepting U.S.A. users. More updates and press releases are expected throughout the week by CompatiblePoker and their U.S.A. casino / poker guides as new developments take place at http://www.compatiblepoker.com/usa.php Send2Press(R) is the originating wire service for this story.
