December 11th, 2011 – Because of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, many online poker sites were closed to United States members. Quite a few of the poker rooms were involved in legal proceedings regarding their legitimacy in operating with US citizens. Because of the severity of the charges, many online poker rooms decided that they would bar US citizens from gambling on their sites. This was more for protection than as a punishment, but many US citizens were disgruntled as they had no place to play. Fortunately, there are still some Open USA Poker Rooms available so that Americans can enjoy playing what is still one of the most popular casino games.

BetOnline poker rooms are one of the most popular open USA Poker Rooms. At BetOnline Poker, US players are allowed to play all variations of poker games.

Another great new promotion is the POP2Cash tourney which is for $500 prize and by playing in the tourney you have to accumulate the POP points and turning them into the tournament entry.

America’s Cardroom is one of those open USA poker rooms that does not need much of an introduction. The name says it all. It welcomes American players to share in the excitement of tournaments, bonus cash, and live events. Since it is the holidays, this site is offering free chances for its customers to win seats to the biggest tournaments. US players should be delighted.

How often does a $10,000 investment earn a cool $8.7 million dollars in just a few months? It happened in 2011, to a young man from Germany, Pius Heinz. At the start of the 2011 World Series of Poker, predictions were made. By July 20, only nine remained, leaving the world holding its breath until those nine met again at the Rio in Las Vegas on November 6 to finish the battle. How did the World Series of Poker final table preview predictions hold up?

Final table chip position at the start of the day ranked the players Martin Staszko, Eoghan O’Dea, Matt Giannetti, Phil Collins, Ben Lamb, Badih Bounahra, Pius Heinz, Anton Makiievskyi, and Sam Holden. As of November 4, Vegas odds agreed roughly with the chip leaders, ranking Martin Staszko, Eoghan O’Dea, Ben Lamb, Matt Gianetti, Phil Collins, Anton Makiievskyi, Pius Heinz, Bhadi Bounahra, and Sam Holden in order by odds. Experts weighed in by predicting Ben Lamb as a favorite, along with Phil Collins and Matt Giannetti.

On November 6, the first players to be ousted were, predictably, Sam Holden and Anton Makiievskyi, with short stacks and few plays. Badih Bounahra, too was eliminated on this day as a conservative player short on chips and winning only one showdown. Eoghan O’Dea mixed styles, sometimes being the aggressor with pre-flop raises, and sometimes allowing the other players to do the betting. Neither style worked for him today, as he won no pots, and went home in sixth place.

Martin Staszko played somewhat conservatively until the number of players dwindled. Ben Lamb, too, waited until the play was down to four players before challenging the pot. Pius Heinz, being short-stacked. aggressive, and lucky, won pots to end the day with a very large chip lead over his two remaining opponents, Ben Lamb and Martin Staszko. By the end of the day, the World Series of Poker Final Table Preview predictions appeared deceptively simpler.

November 9, the final day of the main event found the World Series of Poker Final Table Preview to be wildly unpredictable, as Martin Staszko quickly became the chip leader, eliminating Ben Lamb in hand 182 of the final table. Pius Heinz watched his chips whittle away until hand 293, when he started a comback. It was complete. With the ups and downs over the two days, Pius Heinz emerged the mostly unpredicted winner of the 2011 World Series of Poker, walking away with 8.7 million dollars.
