    Fairly misleading thread title, FTP is still in business (as of today).

    It would be great if a disgruntled U.S. customer of FullTilt figured out a way to shut the site down via some sort of computer virus until Full Tilt begins processing withdrawals for their American customers. Clearly, player funds were NOT segregated and FullTilt has pulled a Bernie Madoff type scam.

    I only have a little over $1,000 in my FullTilt account but I know several individuals who have the majority of their savings being held hostage by them and they are scared shitless right now.

    If I was a non U.S. poker player with an account at FullTilt, I would get my money out of there as quickly as possible.
