While the Australian outfit OnlinePokies, which has managed to break the US online ban, has been very vocal over the last few weeks with regards to a $4 million slots jackpot there are some concerns about the legal status of both the online casino and payout. The fact that there would be no legal recourse in the US should they decide to retain the jackpot and not pay out is a big concern for many. So what is happening?
Even though there are many allegations doing the rounds there is no reason as yet not to believe that the Australian outfit are good to their word and run a trustworthy and honourable establishment, but what will the US authorities say about this?
There has been no official comment about the site as yet although there is concern as to how finance has managed to slip through the net for American players when the sector is currently banned in the country. It is also interesting to see that the group is said to be offering a free $750 signup for the new customers who want a slice of the action.
This is an intriguing story and one which may well take some time to resolve in the event of a jackpot win. Will the group pay out? Will the authorities step in? Will US players now shun the site?
