Poker Perambulation

I did a quick article for the site on the Neteller future withdrawl from being a way to fund your play. Yesterday’s blog covers the state of flux that surrounds the online operators. My blogs on the poker legislation are easily available in the group access on the right.  There are  additional articles available  in the articles area on the main page.

I have come across a Reuter’s report of a new release by Barclays Bank [ LON:BARC] and The Bank of Scotland [ LON:RBS]. This joint release advises their clients that they we’ll stop allowing the sites that are involved in gambling to use their services and will cooperate with the online gambling bill. Barclays Bank is Neteller’s bank.
This is the confirmation of what Neteller’s [ SEA:NLR] problem is. On the positive side there are a lot of banks spread out over the world that could service their needs. Transfers would move from your account as quickly as they have in the past. An Electronic Fund Transfer (EFT) will come as quickly from Singapore, Hong Kong, or a Caribbean bank as from a London one.

You can bookmark the links I gave you and check the sites for further news releases. Or, just check back here and I’ll try to provide links to any updates I come across.

On the left you’ll see a breakdown of categories. The ‘poker legislation’ one will lead you to my other blogs on the topic.

ADDENDUM:

Poker players aren’t the only ones unhappy with congressional goings on. A libertarian style think tank got published in the New York Times editorial section that is highly critical. It is now in the archives–think pay to see. But, have no fear, it is out in the open and posted on Iggy’s Blog for Partypoker.
