Doyle's Room Will Stop Accepting U.S. Players

Company Officials Hope Shutdown Is Temporary

Starting March 1, U.S. players at Doyle’s Room will no longer be able to play at the site.

The site announced to its players yesterday that it will no longer allow U.S. players to sign up at the site or existing players to deposit money. On March 1, U.S. players will have access to only the withdraw section of the site.

Players will have the option to transfer their funds and frequent player points over to online rival Full Tilt Poker.

Doyle’s Room’s officials hope the exodus is temporary. They plan on reentering the U.S. market after the federal government clarifies its stance on the legality of online poker rooms in the U.S, according to a company official who confirmed this story to CardPlayer.com. It will accept players from the U.S. again only if and when the government says that online poker rooms are 100 percent legal.

Representatives of Doyle’s Room have tried to get in contact with someone in the government who could clarify its stance and how the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act affects online poker rooms, but their inquiries have been ignored.
