They do have some freerolls if you wanna start from scratch though. After all of the stuff on black friday, I wouldnt consider any online money safe as an American. :/ It kinda sucks. I've played some on Pokerstars here in Sweden and I see players labelled USA from time to time. How does this work if you can't play there? | ||

Its legality here in the states is debatable. You can't technically gamble in states where it isn't legal to, but then again, the Pokerstars servers are located outside of the united states, so do they fall under US jurisdiction? It's hard to say. | ||

If you get good at one thing by trying and practicing really hard, then it means you will be good at another thing if you try and practice hard too! not as much as a connection of skill sets as much as it is the desire to succeed and the ability to critically analyze. | ||

It's hard to say. Have you been following the poker scene at all lately? Because if you have been, then you'd know that Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker (as well as Absolute poker etc) closed their doors to US players awhile ago, so even while its legality is debatable, you should not be finding US players on those sites. This came after the FBI began their investigation into the heads of pokerstars and full tilt poker (in fact, FTP is now not operating at the moment, I believe). | ||
