Following the current and upcoming changes in online gambling regulations in the United States, many sites have been worrying about an amendment, made by Mr. Bachus and Mrs. Bachmann, stating, that any operator offering services to US citizens after the passage of UIGEA will be excluded from online gambling in the future.

As both Full Tilt Poker and PokerStars have been consistently operating in the United States, they would have to be denied a licence.

Congressman Barney Frank (the author of the bill), however, said this week that PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and other sites that had not ceased to welcome US players might receive licenses as well.

“I think the general principle will be there but those things can be worked on as it goes forward,” said Frank.

Last week, PokerStars issued a statement welcoming the new regulations and assuring Congress of their full support.
