The new Federal law does not make any form of online gambling illegal that wasn't already illegal. No one has ever been prosecuted for operating an online poker room, let alone playing, and the predominant legal opinion in the industry is that there is no Federal law against online poker, only sports betting. Several states have banned online gambling, some including poker, including my home state of Washington, but there has never been a prosecution. Howver, I don't play for money when in Washington State and am considering moving.
