*** more bad news about full tilt poker ***

[sapidoc]

im so glad i scammed full tilt before this all went down...i deposited the max ($1500) in a matter of 3 days and then dumped the cash to a friend. the next day i went to my bank and changed the account numbers and FT never got that money :-) love screwing over a company that has screwed thousands over...chalk up one for the good guys.

You are a thief and a dishonest person. More like chalk one up for the ignorant. Karma can be a pain sometimes, good luck.

[Kindred]

-Full Tilt accepted echecks for 7 months knowing the whole time they weren't getting deducted from bank accounts, but still allowed this to collect rake

You sir are a retard! How the hell would they collect rake when they weren't able to deduct the deposit from the bank account.

Seriously troll F off, don't post your bullshit pea brained opinions up as some breaking news story with gay ** all around it. Some of us have money on the site and don't need attention whores on internet forums starting rumors.

That's bank fraud and theft, and since it's over $1500 grand theft scumbag.

Funny the OP and the thief don't even have $200 to become SBR pro...My guess they lost their rolls at tilt and are convinced they are awesome players but the software is rigged. So now they run around talking trash. Dude you guys suck at poker get over the money you lost and move on.

[ChileCheese]

Everything written online is just speculation and conjecture. Thats why the link to 2+2 has the thread already closed. Dont listen to this top notch queer flame.

[CrimsonQueen]

A lot of this sounds made up... still I wouldn't be surprised if either PS or FT were in trouble financially...

LOL you idiot. You think cause I am not an SBR pro I don't have $200? I don't need to grind out sbr points like you to try and pay the rent loser.

[BranchDavidian]

Hmmmm. I just checked my bank account, and my deposit from two weeks ago has been deducted. It seems that some of the posters facts are in question.

[pako74]

damn that sucks. i guess my money is gone. i was hoping they would have done the same as pokerstars.

[Albert Pujols]

How could a poker site go bankrupt? Guaranteed money on every hand with no risk.

[thesodacan]

Do you play in the us?

-Full Tilt accepted echecks for 7 months knowing the whole time they weren't getting deducted from bank accounts, but still allowed this to collect rake

-They let people roll their echecks over and over again and shut down other peoples accounts when they beat fraudulent accounts. Then they have to pay out legit players who beat these people.

-
-FTP "pros" are no where to be found. The majority of team full tilt is in hiding, while the red shirt pros still have gotten no answers

It's obvious for years FTP never segregated players money, they were suppose to do this as per KGC regulations, but instead spent it all. It' sickening. I hope they all go to jail for life.

how does this work? nothing coming out of banks.. but still collect rake?? how... and how would they pay out players if people were betting on "air" i dont think anyone is that stupid..

what are red shirt pros?

[Richards]

While Full Tilt certainly may have been playing fast and loose with player balance just by the appearances of the gourds of player and television sponsorships flooding out of the company -- maybe they rationalized they were "borrowing" the player funds as part of a revenue growth strategy?

Anyway, a lot of the OP conjecture doesn't seem to hold up to logic, and one of the links of "proof" posted was a forum post on 2+2 by a guy with 14 posts.

Guys with 14 posts at SBR get treated with extreme suspicion and even derision, but on 2+2 14 posts = gospel?

Disclaimer: I've never played at Full Tilt, nor do I know anyone they owe significant money to.

[Kaabee]

pure speculation at this point

[blindd]

chit

what is this site falling aprt or should i say its gone already

[thechaoz]

Well I sure hope not because they still have a high four figures of mine. To ever be able to comeback to the U.S. market these issues will have to be resolved. There are some big names behind tilt and on the face of it. It may take a while but I'm not worried (yet?). Stars has my money too.

Well actually the ******* feds do so never mind.

[beach nut]

Links to a blog and a 2 + 2 forum post? Not exactly credible sources.

[wtf]

if the same op had started a thread three weeks ago saying the DOJ was going to shut down their domain you all would have called him the same names your calling him now

troll-liar-criminal-etc.

[LVHerbie]

So your sources are another thread in forum that is speculation and blog post about a canceled tournament... In your thread you gave very specific numbers and I am (after using google...) unable to find this information anywhere... For those of who are unable to grasp the whole google thing can you cite your sources for this information?

[Domer]

not that i dont think u might be right.. but ur post is quite abrasive.. leads me to believe u have several thousands locked up in fulltilt

-stash

i dont have a single penny there, but thats neither here nor there. the salient issue is the fact that lcscanada is a worthless turd that should be banned for REPEATEDLY posting made-up garbage to try and scare people. the sad thing is that some people are so ill-informed that they'll believe his storytelling.

[JOHON8]

Poker Stars is so much better and much better run

Pokerstars software is trash, doesn't even compare to fulltilt.

[zjohnzzz]

still lots of non u.s. playing there so i think we will get our cash sooner or later

PS an FT will pay....

[vividjohn45]

latest issuse of gamingtoday states that full tilt is not paying out americans right now.

absolute poker has a message on its site also. says its not paying out either til the doj us attorney fixes things.

i don't have the issues with me for exact identificatoin.. but i read it tonite at the casino.

http://www.gamingtoday.com/articles/article/30305-ESPN_is_dropping_poker_telecasts

very brand new. Poker player vol 14. #23 may 9, 2011 has full front page dedicated to these stories. (indictments)

www.pokerplayernewspaper.com

latest issue of cardplayer magazine may 4, 2011 which is sponsored in large part by full tilt and poker stars in advertising. seems to have its head up its azz and saying tilt and pokerstar in deals with vegas casinos.

which 2 weeks ago were literally squashed by the indictment. i have not had time to read the lastest cardplayer yet as it was dropped tonite about 10pm at the poker room. but its on my bed right now.




from all the data i've read so far. and i have access to all casino magazines. current. tilt and absolut/ub are being little bitch azzes making excuses to payout. saying the us attorney squeezing them to hard. us attorney is saying we are not. we want these guys to pay americans.

i can still play on absolute from vegas.

all in all one large dog chasing its own tail.

For the OP and others that were pointing out to use Google, vividjohn45's post #58 in this thread shows a good example of what should be posted when trying to post about a subject like this. He didn't post a lot nor do I imagine he actual spent a lot of time gathering his links but at least he clearly stated his points and some links for further information and/or to highlight what he said.

Not saying the OP has to do all of the leg work, google would still be the tool to use to get additional information and further backup, but it is reasonable to expect some solid references to claims made, without having to google it just see if it is true.

I agree, the links I posted weren't the most reputable, but that was spending a total of 2 minutes looking around the web and finding other similar speculation. I wasn't saying that it is a done deal, I was just defending the OP to show that he wasn't the only one who was thinking this.

To the other point about FT crediting accounts, but not actually deducting the money. I have a coworker sitting 5 feet away, who deposited on there over a month ago and still has not had the money taken out of his bank account. So again, there is some truth to this accusation. I don't know what method he used to deposit, but this did happen.

[hostile takeover]

Sucks. I had a couple hundred bucks in there. I've had it in there for a few years so not that big of loss.

[ChileCheese]

Time to get the US of As back online. The world needs free money. Come fishies.

[sportsfun]

well for us players, out of luck. For other countries that can play, stick with pokerstars, where there are no rumors like FT.

I do miss playing the US folks.... Even pokerstars is turning into what I was seeing at DSI, lots (more than before) of spanish/portugese and other languages chatted at the table.

[jstblaze]

I think it makes sense to not take the deposit out but still collect rake.

Obviously as long as there are players playing that have had their deposit collected as well.

If every players deposit was not taken then it obviously makes no sense. But that is not the case, it was probably still a very small percentage, especially because im sure alot of the players at a given time are just playing with their roll and not their recently depsoitted money.

[Euphoria38]

Wow FTP isa bunch of winners eh? Wankers.

Are you serious?

[RANDAZZO]

A lot less fish now that USA can't play that's for sure

[blueghost]

still getting bonus money dont think there broke

[vividjohn45]

oh yeah. waters were so much richer with americans in for the swim. but the soviets are still king size donkers. not to be rude. but these guys bluf to much. and put to much in versus great hands. lol.

just on a site. i flopped a fullhouse, and took three soviets out to the river. guys 3 betting with 8 high flush., 2h ihg flush. and i for get what the other guy had.

but the way these guys bet. i though maybe myaaa55 was beat. but none of the three guys were even close. it is good to be agressive.

but if you can slow play a monster for awhile. and get three guys out to a three bet river. its big payoff time.
