Recently, PokerCollectif announced you that Absolute Poker had come to an agreement with the Department of the American Justice (DoJ). Despite this agreement, the site does not seem to have taken from the hair of the beast! Indeed, since April 15, the site traffic has fallen by 83% according to Poker Scout.
For a still obscure reason, it seems that the site still accepts some Americans. The www.pokerscout.com site announced recently have traffic surveys indicating that players from Chicago, Bakersfield, Cincinnati, Colorado Springs and Minnetonka played real money at Absolute Poker.
According to the agreement between Absolute Poker and the DoJ, "Absolute Poker has accepted that during the term of this agreement, it would not, would not facilitate and would give no opportunity to the players based in the United States to play poker by betting money real or other valuables."
In do not pandering to this requirement, Absolute Poker may face charges of fraud and other severe accusations.
It is still difficult to know what consequences will this rebellious Act. One thing is certain, nothing very encouraging for the future of the site. The future for the Cereus network options become less large as things evolve.
