New laws get passed every day, but who reads them all?

Twin bills in the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate are currently being reviewed, which if passed, would spell the end of online poker playing in America.

The Restoration of America’s Wire Act seeks to reinstate a previous interpretation of the Interstate Wire Act of 1961, making any and all gambling through interstate or foreign communications using technological means illegal.

As it is written, it seems that it will not only make online poker illegal for the poker rooms or sites to host, but also make it illegal for the players to patronize any online poker rooms that would be operating illegally.
