I would like to know whether it is still legal for US residents/citizens
to place bets online ... as long the sites are hosted overseas.
I was thinking about doing this on sites like Tradesports (http://tradesports.com),
or Intrade (http://www.intrade.com).
Their customer service dept says that, while *most* of their customers
are based in the US, they cannot and will not give legal advice.
I also remember hearing that there was a bill in Congress aimed at banning
US citizens from online gambling (or something similar to this).
Any insights?
