A report is circulating that a loophole (intentional?) in the Cereus network, which includes Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet, permits US-based players to continue to play poker despite the federal crackdown. If I am the Department of Justice and this is true, I am not a happy camper. Think of getting one-outed on the river in PLO mad. The last thing the poker world needs right now is a bunch of greedy poker site owners trying to squeeze a few more bucks out of the US market before the market closes, perhaps permanently. It can serve only to rile the feds and strengthen their resolve. Good work Cereus. Way to think of the big picture. (Of course, like all criminals…Absolute and Ultimate Bet deny the allegations.)
