Actually the Doj made poker legal

The feds seem to manipulate the laws to mean whatever they want.I'm sure some states paid them off ,so they could sell lottery tickets from state to state.By re-interpreting the wire act.
Since they did not intend this to include online poker,which is a by product of their recent interpretations,its still going to be a fight,but a good attorney should be able to convince the courts of the feds folly.

I read the same thing on this site. That the DOJ changed there stance in online poker. They stated it was a game of skill, and not of chance. So They sad it wasnt in there best interest too fight. Sportsbetting is a game of chance however like the gentleman or lady above stated, you cant bet sports in US. However you can bet poker and be fine. The Senate will need to pass some bills for it, but its legal.
