For some reason The USA thinks their foreign policy can govern gambling all over the world. There are only really a small amount of sites that do no allow usa players for fear of repercussions from the USA feds. Mothersquatch is correct, there are still a lot of sites that will allow USA players to join up, including some of the largest in the world (pokerstars, fulltilt poker). I am sure eventually( and hopefully) the US govt will come to their senses and re-allow online gambling once they can figure out a way to monitor and tax it accordingly. The IRS is world famous for being hard on any tax cheats, so in my opinion, the eventuality of this coming to fruition is only a matter of time.
