Online Poker is not part of the Wire Act

So you think just because you play online poker and you are a US citizen, you will be excluded because of the Wire Act? Well sit tight, because many have said that online poker doesn’t have anything to do with this act and that US players are getting banned for no reason whatsoever. Allyn Jaffray Shulman, who is a respected American legal figure, analyzed the wire act as it pertains to online poker and has come to the conclusion that it’s outdated.

The statute, which was introduced to disrupt the financing of organized crime only prohibits sports betting and NOT online gambling, poker or anything else. She also says that legislators themselves do not fully believe that the statute prohibits online gambling activity. They are just viewing it as criminal and going from there which in every essence is not the legal way to go about this. The influence of the Wire Act, however outdated, has seen the introduction of the UIGEA which specifically targets the transfer of funds between citizens of the US and online gambling companies overseas. In other words, online poker was not within the reach of the Wire Act’s prohibition. The District Court of Appeal agreed with Duvall’s ruling that the 1961 Wire Act does not apply to online poker.

The new bill attempts to make it more difficult to get money into a gambling site by forbidding US financial Institutions from funding the type of online gambling that the law has previously made illegal. The new bill does not make online gaming illegal where it was not illegal before. She says the new bill does not make online gaming illegal. but merely speaks to the mechanism by which an online account is funded. We’ll have to wait at least another 180 days or so before the Secretary and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System come up with enforcement policies and procedures. Those procedures are directed to the behavior of banks and credit card companies. Still, if this is enforced, the gaming sites will find other ways for players to fund them.
