In the USA online poker sites that accept real-money players from the USA have become more and more scarce. In this blog post, I will tell you where you can play real-money online poker in the USA.

As I have mentioned in other blog posts on the topic of online poker in the USA, you need to be aware that there are stand-alone online poker sites and there are online poker networks. You can have an account at each stand-alone online poker site and one account on each online poker network.

Here are the stand-alone sites that deal online poker in the USA.

• Bovada Poker – 110% bonus on initial deposits between $20 and $1000

Here are the online poker networks that deal online poker in the USA. I’ve provided a link to one of the sites on the network where you can sign up for an online poker account.

• Yatahay Poker Network – America’s Cardroom - 100% bonus on initial deposits between $25 and $1000
• Merge Poker Network – OddsMaker.com Poker – 100% bonus on initial deposits between $20 and $1000
• Cake Poker Network – Intertops Poker – 110% bonus on initial deposits between $50 and $545

It’s not impossible to play online poker in the USA. You just need to know where to look!

Days ago, Everleaf Online Poker Network banned all new sign-ups and players from the United States as well as two other counties. The move was in response to a letter issued by the US Department of Homeland Security, as well as in response to the seizure of one of Everleaf’s payment processor’s funds.

There are approximately two dozen online poker sites that are part of the Everleaf Online Poker Network. US players may experience significant delays in withdrawing their funds; Everleaf has not commented on how they are going to facilitate the withdraw of funds by their US players.

Everleaf online poker players will want to find an alternative for their online poker play. There are few online poker networks that continue to accept real-money play from US players.

• Bovada Poker: Accepts all US online poker players

Online poker is a fluid, dynamic industry. Just last month, a United States Department of Justice ruling came to light which many feel has paved the way for online poker legalization and regulation in 2012.

It seems that each month — heck, sometimes each week — online poker sites come and go, or change the policy toward accepting US-based real-money players. Complicating things is the fact that there are some online poker networks that have several “skins”, or front-ends, and you’re only allowed to register at one of the skins. So, even though there are more than a dozen US-friendly online poker rooms, you can only open an account at a handful of those sites.

Here is the latest list of US-friendly online poker rooms where you’ll want to have accounts.

If you’d like to show off your online backgammon skills — and put your money where your mouth is — then GameColony is the place for you. Throughout the day, GameColony offers various types of online backgammon games with real cash prizes. They offer both single and double elimination tournaments, played to various point levels. But your real money maker is playing heads up against other players. There are usually more than 100 players in the Main Hall, waiting to play online backgammon for real cash.

The way it works is that you purchase tickets via PayPal, use the tickets to enter tournaments in which you can win more tickets, and then cash out your tickets as cash via PayPal.

If you go to GameColony through a link in this blog, you’ll get $10 FREE to start.

If online backgammon isn’t your game, they have all kinds of other skill-based and arcade-style games that you can also play for cash and prizes. I’ll be highlighting some of the additional games in the coming days and weeks.

GameColony accepts players from most states. Players from the following states are barred from play at GameColony: AZ AR DE FL IA IL KY LA MD MO NY SC NV OH WA VT.

The 5-star rated online casino Treasure Mile has recently added to their already impressive array of over 20 online video slot machines.

Gems n Jewels features a Wild, a Scatter and up to 30 free spins with a 3x multiplier and a maximum payout of 60,000 coins. You’ll be Romancing the Stone in this game – the Emerald to be precise, which is the Wild, and 3, 4 or 5 of these glowing green gems will trigger the free spins feature, where all winnings are tripled.

Horn of Plenty – a 50 line, 5 coin classic slot is the sumptuous new release from BETONSOFT with a wild, a scatter and a mouth-wateringly good free spins feature. You’ll get more from your recommended daily fruit serving with Horn of Plenty as these ripe, delicious fruit pack so much more punch than a healthy dose of Vitamin C. The Horn of Plenty symbol is the Wild and 5 of these on your pay line will result in a tasty payout of 4,000 coins. The Watermelon is the scatter symbol and 2 or more will multiply wins, but it’s the zesty lemon that will attract a lot of smiles as 3, 4 or 5 of these symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger the free spins feature.

You can check out these new online slots, or any one of the 20+ online video slots, at Treasure Mile online casino.
