Well that will pretty much screw BetUS.com as the name pretty much only attracts U.S. players.

Why is the only source for this the questionable Gambling911? I'm not saying that it isn't true, but it is curious that they're the only ones citing it.

Update: I guess a couple of other minor sites mention it on Google news, but why nothing official yet?

Just spoke to someone at Doyle's and they ARE still accepting USA players (except Louisiana and Washington).

I heard this rumor last week. It was from another source. Yeah still accepting players but still a worry

The deal that they were kicked from Tribecca comes from a reliable source. They were given 6 months to leave the network orignally which I believe was May 15 or May 1st. This part I heard from a very reliable source.

I Heard elsewhere (don't quote me on this) the rooms who were going to block USA had this option right away. Others who did not block USA players had until a cetain date to leave and go to another network.

tribeca said a long time ago that they would no longer accept US players, but they would give their rooms time to find a new network.

Doyle's Room would already be on another network if the software FCP is using didn't suck so bad. Now they've had to change plans. My guess is they'll be on the Merge network in the next few weeks.

US players can play through February, just no new US players right now.
