US Residents Gamble Online
February 27th, 2009Author: Ildebrando Pugliesi
Despite banned online gambling, US players have always been able to find the ways to gamble online.
A California resident, Kelly J, is known to have won a very decent jackpot at Bodog – $141,000. She was playing Caribbean Stud Poker at the Bodog online casinos when she suddenly hit the jackpot. The winning was so unexpected that she didn’t believe it until Bodog actually called her.
Kelly’s winning became possible since Bodog is one of the few online casinos accepting US players and funds from the US and allowing gamblers to cash out their winnings.

I live in Antigua (where bodog is now based) the US government greatly hurt the online gambling industry and I believe that it really was purely that the government was fed up not getting the tax revenue from gambling. What the US government failed to realise was they greatly hurt Antigua and Antiguans in the process. And for the record I think Bodog is a GREAT website!
