Review

Chico Poker Network, a large and reliable Network which includes the site Bet Online (friendly and accessible to North American players), Sportsbetting and Tigergaming (also accepting of American players), implemented this changes without any warnings and, according to the player's reports, it has not affected all the players at Chico. So far, there is no official explanation either, but many initially thought it was caused by the large volume of grinders and the consequent fees they represent to the network. However, the user "BetOnline Mike" at the Two Plus Two poker forum gave a player the following answer:

"Unfortunately it is out of our hands at the moment. It is to do with the new regulations affecting Skrill and Neteller I believe in the EU, it is across the majority of the casinos online".

We have covered changes in the UK regulations regarding online gambling, implemented by the UK Gambling Commission, in our recent news article that can be found here. As we pondered in said article, those changes are affecting not only the UK gaming market but the world's online gambling industry as a whole.

Most payments at Chico Poker Network are processed through cryptocurrencies, most notably, bitcoin. The reason for this is that majority of players at the site are Americans and that is the only option they have. So, the players affected by the removal of Skrill and Neteller are also changing to crypto, including those who reside in different countries.
