My thoughts are that with all the negative news many USA players are maybe afraid to play. The news media have basicly said online gambling is illegal and I know from many I have spoke with here in my hometown that they are aware. The online casinos that pulled out sent email to all USA players telling them that their accounts were closed. As a player if I did not know better I probally would not trust making a deposit in a online casino right now. I knew the new law would deal a great blow to the industry regardless of forcast say. I am glad I sold most of my sites and original affiliate accounts when I did. I have been advertising my new affiliate accounts at a loss the past 3 months. Example: Spend $10,000 to make $5,000. I agree with the Professor that it is only going to get worst when Neteller pulls from the USA. Its sad!
