    Any US Guys Play Online Poker?

    Very simple question -- what are the options for US guys looking to play online poker? Is it bitcoin only? Preferably I'd like a site where I can just play sit-and-go tourneys. I'm sure this has been posted before, but my own search turned up dry.

    That's what I figured. That's the main reason I want these gambling bills to pass -- I can always find a bookie, but the only poker I can find is cash games, and they're all shady as hell.

    whenever i am in a good spot in an online poker tourny the craziest sh1t always happens. its always a big tease, take 5000 starting chips sit there for 3 hours kicking ass to 60,000 chips then get thru the bubble and all the bots show up to clobber you. never make a run to the top 10 im noticing

    Ignition Poker has the widest spread of options, largest amount of regular traffic, and many weak players. One day we will all be able to play on Pokerstars again! Might be another 3-10 years though

    Online poker in america is dead and will always be dead because lawmakers will never allow americans to join a pool of international players again. Also, it doesn't help that the poker boom is dead and never coming back.

    Games are significantly softer in USA then elsewhere. There is a reason Canadians and those overseas want in on our games so bad. USA players are the real fish.

    Rather than read or do things like this it's probably best to just find players that play games you like and learn from watching them.

    Twitch is a great resource and it's free or if you find players you like you can subscribe to support them for $5 a month.

    No. It's rigged. There was an investigation where 2 players on the table wee colluding with each other to make the other players raise bets and they knew what the winning hand was ahead of card dealing.

    Just got eliminated.

    Two big pots. I had the best hand both times, and lost both times.

    Totally cheated.

    +1, Yep, still the biggest scam out there and the suckers ....I mean fish fall for it hook, line, and sinker. You guys gotta remember, online poker is just software, and software can be written and manipulated to achieve the outcome these scam web sites desire.
