I have been talking this over with my friend at work, although im not great on all this political/legal stuff here is my take.
-Stars/Full Tilt would have 30 days to pull out of the US market if they wanted to have any chance of getting a license and would then have to wait an additional 2 years after the 15 months before they could reopen to US players this part sucks. Im guessing Party Poker would love this seeing as they would be a frontrunner and I doubt the players would want to go back to FPT and Stars after being at party for so long. I also heard that the money would be double taxed for us, would be taxed when we put it on and when we withdraw. It would be a nightmare with all the withdraw that woud take place and I just hope they dont pull a jetset poker and not pay some people.

I think this post is a read for US player with money on a site right now. The poster is a well informed mod in the Poker Legislation forum at the other site. In the past his information has been valid and his source is a fairly high up person in one of the two big sites.

yea just like what Jetset poker did, they paid out some people but there is a lot of people that didnt get their money. And they were a basic mom and pop site with very little on. I mean there you would be lucky to find one 5/10 game imagine the amount thats on stars or FTP though. Even if like a small portion of those big players dont get their money that is a huge ass amount. I would really be worried about people with a lot of money on stars or tilt right now and honestly I suggest just keeping the minimum you need to play the games your playing.
there is some posts for PPA rep in this thread
