Liam,

I am happy to clarify this for you. Any online gaming site that is accepting US players for real money games will clearly be in violation of this new law. Any affiliate of these gaming sites that are helping to refer US players have the possibility of being criminally prosecuted. In legal terms where you are located is irrelevant because the crime is accepting funds from US players at online gaming sites. In practical terms it matters where you are located because if you choose this option it will be more difficult to locate and prosecute you.

So lets use a real world example: Fulltilt has stated they will continue to accept US players after the law takes effect. At this point they will be in open violation of the law and would be subject to possible indictments. If you are an affiliate of this gaming site and are recruiting US players then you are also criminally liable under US general conspiracy laws. I said before that affiliates are not likely targets in these investigations but the gaming sites clearly are and any affiliate could be dragged into that.

I hope that is a sufficient answer.
