[jjgold]

You guys need to go to other countries and open bank accounts as many of you are going to get squeezed out of gambling.

[stevenash]

No, I was talking to a guy I've known for years at covers, he (and he's not the paranoid type) was telling me, if you got big money in books, get it out, like now.

[jjgold]

good thing i withdrew my whole roll last week then

[Cap dat 4ss]

I demand a 100% refund from all sites involved on all losses, since they were illegal losses. I will be suing the DOJ for my money.

[Cuse0323]

this sucks, wonder if bodog not having ******** anymore is linked to this.

[Niwrad]

Yep! "Land of the free" my ass. Only fuking industrialized country where you can't gamble your own fuking money.

Actually you can, but you have to be a financial institution and be using other people's money. And even then I guess it's not gambling since the taxpayers will cover your losses.

[JakeLc]

good to know FBI is using it's resources on something important

[stevenash]

I will be suing the DOJ for my money.

Best of luck with that.

I'm ******.

I just called 5D, I requested 4K of my 4600 in there.
I'm not waiting to see how the rest of this plays out.

[CanuckG]

I have 4 digits on Pinnacle...should be safe right?

[bbenson011]

this is fuking nuts wonder what is going to happen to all the money

[Wiggums5]

i would withdrawl if you have a significant amount of money in any books...

better safe than sorry

[shari91]

I know it doesn't help many of you:

But for Aussies - I just refreshed and I can get back in to FT. Grabbing my cash and getting the hell out of there.

[CanuckG]

Unreal..wire half I guess and see what happens. Doubt this will affect Pinnacle/5dimes..

[buzzybuzzy]

Perhaps I just don't know enough, but why didn't they just set up operations in another country before all this happened?
