ShalomWas simply showing the next step as was asked. This is shown under the section "STATUS". Lots of other info. on the Bill link also is available which I am sure you can understand.Thanks Nash for the link, but what does it mean? I looked at it and read some of the info and it is hard for a regular person to understand.
As Bryan states "NO"Does this indicate the US players have gotten the green light for online gaming?
Let's hope the ban is near the end.
Then each State (as currently proposed) has the right to opt-out (or opt-in) in the event the Bill is passed and signed Federally.It's got a long way to go, and the bill, as it is now, could go through many more transformations before it's actually presented to the president for him to sign. And even then, it may be rejected, and then the process would start all over again. Think about it though. This is one great way to get more tax money coming in, so it'd be political suicide for him not to sign it.
The next steps are:
* Full vote in the House
* Senate committee vote (provided a sponsor can be found)
* Full vote in the senate
* Conference committee to resolve differences between House and Senate versions
...and ultimately:
* Signature by the president
P.V. said:Amendment 11 (Manager’s amendment — the majority and minority member who managed the debate): Bets are to be made with prepaid cards and debit cards only; bettors will be restricted from using credit cards on Internet gambling sites. In addition, the House Financial Services Committee will have no jurisdiction on tribal rights. Amendment passes by voice vote.
FWIW, have read several articles in the last few days regarding Paypal/Ebay re-entering the funding of online gambling. Keep in mind the legal and logistical (credit cards are one of the primary means of funding e-wallets) issues. It can get complicated.Is that right? I thought it was just to ban credit cards. The amendment above suggests eWallets are out too?

If we can deposit directly via debit/prepaid card, why do we need ewallets? (thank you so much QT for blackballing me, effectively ending my online gambling:icon_evil)
Okay, why would being blackballed from QT end your gambling?
I always used my debit when I deposited and all the major casinos that service the US does accept debit.
Without QT I have no practical place to withdraw to. EWX is to expensive, the casino I play at won't send checks to America, and I don't want to risk getting a wire directly from the casino.
