Its is definitely illegal. Thank Bill Frist when you get a chance. He sponsored the Unlawful Internet Gaming Act that was attached to some important port security bill.
The laws against online gambling are centered around the financial institutions that process the payments, not the players. These laws are also U.S. laws which means if the payment processor is not located in the U.S., the law doesn’t hold as much weight.
The challenge is, finding a good online casino that accepts U.S. players. Otherwise, you shouldn’t have a problem cashing your checks.
