We need to make a list of sites which are/aren't avaliable
Rest assured my American buddies, I will only be playing sites which you are allowed onto too. Solidarity brothers. 
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

Wow, they even cancelled bets I had on last night college games (I think I would have lost).
They took away the sportsbetting link & you can't get in there anymore. They transferred the money back to Paradise & I took it out from there.

moreso than thanks for the link... thanks for this statement! i would hope that we would all do this in order to stand strong against this kind of crap... but i'm not foolish enough to think you're not in the minority here.
thanks though for standing with us!! i know i'd do the same.
on top of that... as i've said before... i hope that folks DON'T go back to any site that's closed it's doors, even if they come to their senses and reopen. support those sites that stood by you, not the ones that bailed.
jmho.

You question my motives??? 
Well it stands to reason doesn't it  more Americans = more fish in the pond.
I am in the fortunate position where I can pick and choose, but I will be choosing the sites which stood by their players and not the ones who slammed the door in their face. I will pretty much be spending my time between Stars, UB and FTP (altho I've yet to deposit there)
I would love to see the sites that bailed go under now, but my cynical side tells me that if Party ever opens it's doors to US clients again then fans of unstable software, terrible tourney structures and cartoonish graphics will go flooding back.

Sad but true. They will go back by the thousands....it will be like a school of fish all heading to the fish food being dropped in the water.
Not all US players are fish Webby... if you doubt me look at me... ...I am a shark all the way...a great white at that...
