US DoJ seizes 10 more domains.
April 15, also known as Black Friday, saw the crackdown of US authorities on leading poker rooms PokerStars, Full Tilt, Absolute Poker and UB. What will May 24 go down as?
Ten dot.com domains of online poker and gambling sites have been seized by the US Attorney's Office for the District of Maryland last night. The 10 domains are:
Bookmaker.com
2Betsdi.com
Funtimebingo.com
Goldenarchcasino.com
Betmaker.com
Betgrandesports.com
Betehorse.com
BetEd.com
Truepoker.com
Doylesroom.com
Many domains, some of the above included, stopped accepting US players immediately after Black Friday. Doylesroom even saw greater ramifications of the crackdown, as its namesake Doyle Brunson left the site soon after.
The seize of domains concluded an undercover operation involving third-party payment processors, EGamingReview reports. Two domestic bank accounts registered in Guam and North Carolina have also been obtained by federal prosecutors.
Sites that have not stopped accepting US players, and which haven't announced intentions to do so in the future, have actually moved their domains and redirected traffic to non-dot.com domains.
Below is the announcement when arriving at Doylesroom:
Blackjack
Slots
Roulette
Baccarat
Craps
Poker
