Since last Friday, the biggest poker room in the world, PokerStars has been reeling after having to pull out of the US market.
Along with Full Tilt and Absolute/UB Poker, PokerStars now stands accused of charges relating to bank fraud, illegal gambling and money laundering.
Focussing on the situation at PokerStars, the FBI seized the companys domain name and have issued arrest warrants for PokerStars founder Isai Scheinberg and director Paul Tate.
Preet Bharara, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, along with Janice Fedarcyk, Assistant-Director-in-Charge of the New York Field Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, unsealed an indictment charging the founders and payment processors of the above poker sites with a variety of offenses.
