On April 15, 2011, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York seized and shut down Pokerstars and several of its competitors' sites, alleging that the sites were violating federal bank fraud and money laundering laws.

All of cash games are available on the site's mobile app, so you can play real money poker cash games at PokerStars on the move if you have a WiFi or mobile internet connection.
