New Internet Poker Laws

A lot of bad press about the new Internet poker laws has been used to scare U.S. poker players away from online casinos. It’s true that they make playing pay-to-play poker online difficult for U.S. players, since financial institutions now cannot transfer money to an online casino. At the National League of Poker, we applaud these new laws, since they help protect U.S. poker players from unscrupulous offshore sites.

Even many sites that claim to offer free play online often charge membership fees, tournament buy-ins, and assorted other fees and charges. The prize money they award comes from the players’ pockets, not theirs. This is still considered Internet gambling, and still illegal.

Why the New Internet Poker Laws Work for Us

There are really only two options for Internet sites that comply with the new laws. You can play for free at an online site which awards only points, or you can play at www.nlop.com. Here we are 100 percent compliant with all of the laws that impact Internet gambling, yet we are able to award cash prizes to the tune of $250,000 in 2006!

How do we do it? It’s simple, really. Our prizes and cash awards come from our sponsors and advertisers, not from you. Since players are never asked to put up any money in any form, our site is entirely legal. We don’t even accept advertising from offshore gambling sites. Register now, and play at the online site where you truly have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
