With the bill that President Bush signed in October 2006, Americans were restricted from gambling on online casinos, sportsbooks, bingos, and poker rooms. While this caused many online casinos to leave the United States marketplace, there are still many states within the country where it is not illegal to gamble at an online casino.
Within the small total of 11 states where gambling at online casinos is illegal, two of those consider such an act a felony. Those two states are Louisiana and Washington. The other 9 states simply disallow online gaming and they are: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. But online poker and casino games can still be enjoyed by citizens in the rest of the 39 states.
But where does one go when looking for a quality online gaming experience when most have run for the hills? Full Tilt Poker is one of the few that still allows American to play online poker even after the October 2006 bill was passed.
