Merge Gaming issued a statement today which affects players in France and the United States, in short:
1. Players from France will no longer be able to play on any Merge Poker Network site for real money. Their only access will be to the Cashier so they can withdraw their bankroll. This applies to new and existing players.
2. Players from the following US states are now restricted from creating new real money accounts on any Merge Poker Site:
- New York
- Washington
- Maryland
- Missouri
- Louisiana
NOTE: This only applies to new players from these states – existing players are unaffected.
Also, as I am sure you’re aware rakeback will no longer be offered to new players after June 1st, 2011. They will be offering new promotions to replace rakeback, they’re currently in the final stages of planning and we will release information about the new program in the next few days.

Whatever the government wants, the government gets. It's getting ridiculous now with all of this.

Another day another serving of bullshit sandwich,lol.I really hope Merge doesn't fold up because it seems like the only one that is ready to wave the middle finger at the USA gov is Bodog, all the others are dropping like flies
