Online Poker Canada

Canadian poker players are fed up with the criminal actions of Full Tilt Poker have decided to take legal action against the rogue poker room. That’s right, Canadian poker players have filed a lawsuit and are  suing Full Tilt Poker.

With the events that happened during online poker’s “Black Friday”, where on April 15th 2011 the top online poker sites had their domains seized by the FBI, many are asking questions like “Can Canadians still play at Full Tilt?”, and “Where is it safe for Canadians to play online poker in 2011?“. We hope to clear the air, and give Canadians a better understanding of what is happening.

The US Government has seized the domain names for PokerStars, Full Tilt, UB, and Absolute poker for “conducting, financing, managing, supervising, directing, or owning all or part of an illegal gambling operation…”. Many of the poker sites owners have been arrested including the CEO of Full Tilt Poker, Raymond Bitar.

With the popularity of the iPhone and the newly released iPad skyrocketing, the demand for mobile poker playing apps are growing as well. We would like to let all Canadians know of a new site that is promising to become the industry leader in terms of playing poker on your iPhone, iPad, or even iPod touch!

Paddy Power Poker is now refusing bets from Canadian players due to complications with Canadian law. Players began receiving emails from Paddy Power like the one quoted below. Please see our list of online poker sites that accept Canadian players to find a room that will take your action.
