Settle down. There was a discussion about this recently. Look thru the pages of this thread. While it does say that, they paid these winners from those states anyway.
I think you're just fine and any credits earned will be credits won.

I would think it's not betting. We play to win free games; not money.

Hey Biggie, don't have a cow! I too fumed over that disclaimer last yr when I played in this format-I later got a message from the big cheeses that they don't pay any attention to that, to them it doesn't matter what st you live in, they will honor thier prize committment, what ever that is, wherever you happen to live.

When they first started this in 2001, I believe, they actually paid out cash prizes. I have a feeling that they just haven't changed their rules since going to the credits for prizes.

Call your attorney immediately!
Jeeminy H. Christmas man, settle down. If SOM credits are gambling prizes, then arrest the kids down at the arcades winning vidio game and pinball machine credits.
That's what we're talking about here.

I don't think anyone said it was?
I mentioned that online poker is online gambling is against federal law. Do they prosecute players, generally? No--they want to prosecute the mob-tied folks who run the places--problem is most of it is offshore.
SOMO is not betting and not gambling--did someone think it was?
