I agree, he was probably not after the poud edge, but the rule is in place to discourage people from exploiting the pound edge. In other words, I think the player just got caught up in a rule meant to penalize other players.

I feel the rule is fairly divulged, although it could be done better.

Restricting players to certain currencies based on geographic location is up to the casino, and I don't see why they should be removed from the accredited list for it. Afterall, many reputable casinos have such rules.
