Just read about it now..Not sure if this includes Doyles Room as well, but I'm assuming it does.

Did you know that participating in a poker forum can help you improve your own game? Be it by sharing experiences or simply asking for help, participation in a forum helps you focus and keep 'on topic' which will help you improve your game. You can learn from other players feedback and from their experiences. Why the THP poker forums? We offer one of the best managed texas holdem poker forums available, and the community within is far more friendly than those typicaly found on other sites. We've made a 'lurkers edition' of the poker forum available here on Holdem Poker Online, but we encourage all visitors to register and join in on the conversations on TexasHoldem-Poker.com

I read a post on 2P2 about it this afternoon. Heres the quote:
| Quote: | Hi Guys!,
I joined VC Poker about a week ago and was very happy until I received an email today informing me that VC Poker will no longer accept play from US citizens and I have to cash out.
No doubt this makes for a more secure America! 
Below is an excerpt from the letter:
**********************************************
"In respect of ongoing ambiguity regarding the legitimacy of online gaming for US citizens, we regret to inform you that all poker sites powered by Victor Chandler will no longer be able to service US accounts (i.e. accounts referencing US address details).
We kindly request that you make immediate arrangements to withdraw the funds remaining in your real money account by no later than 12:00:00 GMT on 20.09.2006. After this deadline your account will be closed."

The Doyle's Room web site makes no mention of it, nor have I been notified that my account is being closed, etc.
I thought VC was strictly for UK players anyway, or am I thinking of another one that wouldn't accept US players?

I was just in Doyle's Room this afternoon and everything worked fine. Maybe Doyle is saying screw the feds and GW...I know I am...
