South Point has been approved for intrastate on-line poker. You will have to be in Nevada to participate. This is indeed unprecedented for a company to receive the approval of a U.S. gaming authority, but it does not affect the entire U.S. I am sure they will monitor URLs, and they must be taking some steps to prevent URL redirection.

If not, they take money from people outside Nevada at their own risk. In most states (and maybe all), someone who loses at gambling has the right to sue to recover his losses. A remnant of the pre-casino days, those rules now exempt losses at licensed casinos, but they are still in effect for unlicensed games. You seldom hear about those laws because nobody in his right mind would have sued the Mob to recover his illegal gambling losses, but that law would still be there to protect.
