Planet
Poker
turns
to
free
play
March 26, 2007
In
an
interesting
online
gambling
move,
one
popular
poker
site
has
completely
switched
its
line
up
of
poker
games
to
free
play.
Planetpoker.com,
well
known
as
the
one
of
the
very
first
poker
rooms
online
for
online
gambling,
has
announced
it
will
discontinue
its
real
money
game
play
beginning
March
31.
So,
if
you
are
a
Planet
Poker
player
at
the
online
gambling
site
- be
advised.
The
online
casino
site
said
it
was
concluding
its
real
money
poker
game
betting
due
to
the
new
strict
payment
handling
issues
related
to
the
newly
administered
Unlawful
Internet
Gambling
Enforcement
Act.
Players
at
Planet
Poker
can
see
this
information
in
the
site’s
press
release.
Additionally,
all
of
the
online
gambling
poker
players
at
the
Internet
location
are
assured
that
their
money
is
not
only
safes
and
secure
just
as
their
deposits
have
been
for
nearly
a
decade
at
the
site,
they
will
receive
email
announcement
about
how
to
take
out
their
money.
What’s
more,
the
site
is
not
over,
it
is
just
switching
to a
no
money
game
selection.
Free
play
will
still
be
there
for
all
of
the
players
that
play
for
free
or
for
money
players
that
wish
to
continue
playing
the
same
games
they
love
for
free.
In
fact,
if
you
are
an
online
gambling
fan
at
the
site,
you
can
simply
transfer
your
money
to
another
online
gambling
card
room
that
has
an
agreement
with
Planet
Poker
or
simply
withdraw
your
money
all
together.
If
you
are
interested
in
continuing
to
play
for
real
money,
it
is
recommended
that
you
simply
transfer
your
money
because
it
is
time
saving
and
there
are
other
online
gambling
sites
that
have
made
deals
with
Planet
Poker.
Worth
mentioning
to
our
online
casino
news
article
readers
is
that
this
press
release
we
are
speaking
of
does
not
mention
the
other
poker
site
involved.
The
press
release
does
recommend
that
new
online
gambling
poker
players
play
at
Bodog
Poker.
In
the
release
we
do
see
a
statement
that
reminds
players
that
given
the
difficulties
getting
monies
into
an
online
poker
room,
that
it
does
highly
recommend
that
players
to
transfer
funds
in
order
to
avoid
cash
out
delays
and
other
money
funding
delays.
As
we
mentioned
above
– it
will
be
time
consuming
to
take
the
money
and
redeposit
it
elsewhere.
Transferring
is
recommended.
Now,
Planet
Poker
may
in
fact
re-enter
the
US
gaming
market
if
new
laws
are
passed
regarding
such.
As
for
now,
it
will
not.
We
have
been
diligently
watching
the
new
developments
in
online
gambling
and
its
future
in
the
US
market.
There
is
much
to
come
in
fact
If
you
are
unfamiliar
with
this
online
gambling
site,
it
has
long
been
a
staple
of
the
Internet
gaming
industry.
Planet
Poker
is
part
of
the
United
Poker
Network.
This
network
also
includes
the
sports-gambling.com
and
pokerblue.com
online
sites.
