    In June 2013 Bulgaria overhauled their poker laws, introduced a new regulation system and black-listed most  overseas poker operators, I can only assume Sky Poker was one of them.  A year ago Jersey and Guernsey were also on the Sky Poker list of permitted countries. I've no idea why they've dropped off since. There has been much upheaval in poker laws across the world since Black Friday, it's a bit of a minefield at the moment. The UK Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Bill is due to become law in the next few months. We are very lucky, the UK will continue to be one of the best and safest countries in the world to play online poker. Many other nationalities, particularly Americans, look at us with nothing but envy.

    I suppose that means they've added the smaller ones then and lumped them in a group. So we lost Bulgaria a year ago, apart from that no significant change.

    The owners of the biggest online poker sites, PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and Absolute Poker, were arrested and the sites were shutdown in the United States after the FBI alleged that the sites laundered money and defrauded banks to get around gambling laws.

    That's Black Friday in a nutshell. Loads of articles on it
