Can I use Betdaq from the USA?
Does the betting exchange Betdaq work from the USA? I know you can't deposit cash, but if I already have an account and cash is in there, will I be able to access the website and make a bet from the USA?
No, the United States is restricted from betting.

Is it legal for U.S. citizens to trade futures on the Irish prediction exchange Intrade.com?
The SAFE Port Act seems to suggest it isn't, or at least that it's illegal for a U.S. bank to fund your account.
Here's the bill:

"The real-money prediction exchanges are not exempted from the Internet Gambling Prohibition and Enforcement Act of 2006. Also, there’s no indication that the US Treasury and US DOJ will exclude the real-money prediction exchanges (a.k.a. betting exchanges) when they will enforce the law."
Personally, I think that if your state has a prohibition on gambling, then you could be in serious trouble here. You need to do individual state research. There is some federal law which also appears to go against you. The odds are NOT in your favor. There has been no dispositive case law for this exact issue, but similar issues are generally negative.

I totally will have to get out of my apartment much more not to mention eliminate losing almost all of my morning logging hands in poker on myspace or facebook mainly because in recent times i have been losing out on reading with regards to this. Although I can’t announce that I one hundred percent agree with every single premise, it is excellent to take a look at some intelligent writings as an alternative to the conventional trash I come across floating all across the web.
