U.S.: Poker sites work around federal shutdowns, get sites back up

  • The developments are confined to the U.S. and do not have any impact on your ability to continue using our services. Please be assured player balances are safe. There is no cause for concern. For all customers outside the U.S. it is business as usual.
  • A statement from PokerStars • Informing users that despite its site being shut down in a federal sting, its app is still operating and will continue to do so … for users outside the U.S. The site is now located at PokerStars.eu. Full Tilt Poker, relocated to a .net domain, has a similar message up at the moment. (Absolute Poker, however, isn’t up as of this writing.) We imagine a bunch of poker addicts high-tailing it to Canada to get their fix. source
