Yea it's not Team Liquid's decision or Poker Strategy's decision to disclude US-Citizens, it's just US Law that regulates and blocks certain form of online gambling (I think the specifics is that pokerstrategy.com is just an organization for the gambling that links to actual gambling sites, as in there is no actual gambling that goes on at the site, which violates some bureaucratic law). And it's not just the contest, the reason US-Citizens can't enter is because they can't even sign up for PokerStrategy.com.

Well does suck that US residents can't join but I probably wouldn't win anyways. Already used up all my luck last year, won a trip to the Bahamas.

Korea would be nice though!

Question. I'm quite suspicious about those 50USD for everyone. Can I simply make an account, go all-in once, get my money and quit forever without paying anything? Cus I don't wan't to become a poker addict

Is this site called LiquidCraft?

what is the point of this? implying an analogous name to liquidpoker would be liquidstarcraft, not liquidcraft. literally asking, the obvious answer is "no, this is teamliquid." as a rhetorical question, it's a non sequitur. any way you read it, it doesn't respond to what is quoted.

It's no pokerstrategy.com that hates you. It's the US government being retarded and having extremely gay online gambling laws. Makes me sad :[

Awesome! Just finished my application and setup, man it takes a while but it's pretty cool that these guys are pretty much giving you 50$ for free and the poker knoweledge in itself is pretty helpful. Probably took me about an hour to read the articles and I think I'm a smarter poker player already lol. Really cool resource though for anyone interested. I might even start playing now at full tilt :D

Thanks for sponsoring the TSL, you guys are awesome @ pokerstrategy.com !

Just curious but how long does the validation email take to send typically? I still haven't received mine.

Not allowing the US pop is down right stupid, sorry to say it but its true.

And it's entirely to blame on the US gov't.
Seriously. US TL people who are being slighted here, let's all write letters to congress to stop blocking online gambling. It's already under a lot of fire from the WTO and more.
