Anybody else in Texas having trouble playing on pokerstars?

I have been too busy to play since sunday evening (4/10/11). I logged in today, did the mandatory update installation, and now when I try to buy into my usual SNG, i get a notice saying "due to government regulations, playing real money in your area is not allowed". Anybody know what the hell is going on?

been playing all day , took a break for lunch and got the same message... doesn't look good. It was done in oregon a few months ago but that was a state enacted law.

The founders of Poker Stars, Full Tilt and Absolute Poker were indicted today on charges of illegal gambling, bank fraud, and money laundering. Domains were seized and some are already reporting the url’s of each site displaying a US Government landing page.
