Wow if this goes through it has some real potential. Especially if they can link up the funding like they do the progressive slots. Fund from any casino would be the idea.

Re: foxwoods launches real money online site
i've been playing for free and the software is nice. just some base games, but very unique.
i think that they are ready to challenge the doj, cuz from what i see, that is certainly an online, real money casino. |

[/ QUOTE ] Good for them. The DOJ has been saying that this would violate the Wire Act. However, the Fifth Circuit has explicitly ruled that the Wire Act does not apply to non-sports gambling. Of course, Foxwoods is not in the Fifth Circuit, but this will make for an interesting test case. |

Re: foxwoods launches real money online site
Why would in-house casino funding give an edge? And why would the casinos want that aswell? Poker is relatively non-profit for casino. Drawing people away from the BJ tables and encouraging them to stay at home playing online seems strange to me. Or is this simply a way of trying to cash in on the online explosion?

It's gaming business they are doing even after you've left the casino. ($$$) 2. If you do win some dough, that assures Foxwoods that you'll be coming back at some point. ($$$) |

[/ QUOTE ] or you can send the voucher to GrannyMae who will cash it for you and place in your NETeller account for a smallish (10%) processing fee. wooo btw, i was told that multi-player poker and many other games will be added. this was a soft launch to see how it works. |
