Microgaming closing to all usa residents

[jamkam]

Microgaming has announced that it will no longer be accepting NEW players from the USA. Players with existing accounts will be able to continue to play as usual and receive bonuses and thier winnings.

I have been told that if you register PRIOR to November 10th, even if you DO NOT deposit, that you will be grand fathered in. So if you decide to play 2 months down the road it will be okay.

My advice is to register at ANY and ALL Microgaming casinos which you do not have accounts at. You can find a comphrehensive list by clicking here.

I would just go down the list and get signed up. That is what i am doing at the ones I do not yet have an account at. Imagine that me not having an account at one.

So is this because of Kentucky being a horse's ass or because of new Administration heading into the White House? I'm hanging on a thread here. Almost didn't recover from Playtech pullout. LOL. No really.

Although I am very thankful to Microgaming for allowing me to keep my accounts at all casinos I registered prior to the U.S. legislation being passed, I also think it's important to mention that U.S. players are no longer allowed to participate in Microgaming Progressive jackpot games. I was a fortunate $26,000 dollar winner of Wowpot, and I sure miss playing them. I have tried to rally support for some kind of standard "extra" for U.S. depositers on the lines of gaming fairness, but have been unsuccessful.

Boy I guess you miss them after a win like that! most I've ever gotten out of micro is under 2 grand. I did similar with playtech back in 2006 - was winning winning winning and then bye bye playtech. I am afraid things are going to change her abruptly again and not for the better. Hope I am wrong though.

I dont really know what's their problem with the online gambling!!! That's not their money!!! Beside that they would be winning with the taxes they're implementing on everything!!!

Actually with that news i feel like a a piece of shit....

"Actually with that news i feel like a a piece of shit...."

Britney not sure which of us made you feel like poop LOL, but if it was my post I'd like to update it.
The recent extension from 12/09 to 6/10 of the implementation or enforcement of our favorite little gambling bill leads me to think the mood is changing (DC) and maybe swinging our way. I bet Microgaming has their eye on it and hopefully will jump back in as soon as the water is determined safe. That's just my opinion and/or hope LOL which is kind of greedy cuz I can't even play at all the ones I have now but I want more!
Keep your chin up.
