Direct Link: MP3 Version
This week the US House of Representatives voted to ban most kinds of internet gambling. TMO Editor Bryan Chaffin and Roundup Anchor Ricky Spero dive right in to the politics of it all. Red meat for the religious right? Ralph Nader's dream legislation? Whether you're a poker player, politics junkie, or just someone who likes a good fight, this is a show you won't want to miss.
The Weekly Roundup will be included in TMO's main RSS feed, and also in its own feed if you'd like to add it directly to your podcatching client.

Thu Dec 21, 2006 3:17 pm Subject: US Mac poker sites
Here's a round up of the US Mac poker sites
- Party poker released two Mac poker versions, but then a few weeks later they stopped allowing US players.
- PokerRoom stopped allowing US players
- Pacific Poker stopped allowing US players
- Full Tilt poker still has the best Mac software and allows US players.
- Pokerstars will release Mac Poker software (they accept US players)
So pretty much right now it's only full tilt poker. That's not to bad though, because full tilt is a great poker room.
