Online poker room returns to US market

Ten-time WSOP bracelet-winner Doyle Brunson has lived as an American citizen for over eighty years – with that in mind, he’s decided to return his online poker room to the US. The online poker room, titled simply Doyle’s Room, has decided to switch software providers to one that is exempt from America’s online gambling laws. This means that players from the US can now play at the site of the poker legend. Currently, Doyle’s Room uses Microgaming software. However, in a shock move recently Microgaming announced their withdrawal from the US market. It is thought likely that Brunson’s poker room will move to Cake Poker – a network fast becoming popular with US players. Cake currently blocks players from Kentucky, however anyone from America’s 49 other states are more than welcome on the site.
