RIP Full Tilt

[FuzzyDunlop]

Their license was suspended around 6AM EDST, all tables gone, all tournaments stopped, no access to the cashier.

This might be the beginning of the end for online poker.

[mighty maron]

too much panic.......govt run poker rooms.....

Stars has been above board it seems....they paid american players when allowed to...ftp did not......

[daneblazer]

Yeah lots of panic. This has more to do with Tilt being careless with their money than anything.

[Fishhead]

The FULL TILT PROS are running scared

Howard Lederer refuses to comment.

[davidchong]

i told this two weeks ago....

[rem sleep]

What about all the people who still had money there? Its sounds like they are screwed.

[Trident]

Not good at all for those that have money on Full Tilt.

[eberetta1]

Maybe FullTilt can tell the Gaming Commission what took then so long to pay U.S. players after their accounts were unfrozen.

[davidchong]

moneybookers is announcing the suspensiion of the business with full tilt...

thanks final 2k was withdrawed sunday, leave $1 box

[Maniac]

Looks like it will be tricky now for players to recover any funds there - but I guess the writing was on the wall since Black Friday.

Is hard for players who havent been paid yet, but if the regulator is no longer convinced that they are running their business to the high standard they require and that players money is in danger, then they have no choice but to suspend the licence really.

[no1here]

Stop the games cold turkey putting the screw to many. This could actually speed up Americans getting their money.

[supplykim]

Feel so bad for those who still play there

Lederer's message to players

[playersonly69]

Rest assured, they will be back and probably stronger than ever

[sonyman]

-------Rest assured, they will be back and probably stronger than ever

they may be back but I don't see any way they'll be stronger than ever

[jay777]

Just read the report. Sucks for FTP. How on earth did US authorities raid Absolute Poker in Costa Rica, that part didn't make any sense.

[davidchong]

Full Tilt Operationg from Panama?

[nyed1010]

everything will be okay. Just got off the phone with Lederer.

[Reds_FAN]

This is all about the US government wanting to control American lives.

[xyzky]

Govt. gonna take over fuckit up...

[eleuropeano]

Fuk Lederer, Barack Obama is the new celebrity face of Full Tilt Poker.

[wiffle]

No one will do business with them without a license. Which is why MB have already pulled out.

FTP is busto.

[wtf]

who needs a license to operate

[zsr]

Rest assured, they will be back and probably stronger than ever

How will they be stronger? They'll probably be back up by tonight by they'll be weaker then ever

[JW Cash]

sucks big time....so what else is new

[jjgold]

Ivy is scum
should be in jail
he stole millions

[ChileCheese]

Stop the games cold turkey putting the screw to many. This could actually speed up Americans getting their money.

How do you see today's events leading to a higher probability of a US payout?
If Full Tilt stops operating, and there is no more rake coming in.... no one is getting money anywhere.

[jjgold]

Ivy had to steal at least 5 million and some of you idolize him

just pathetic

[hubie69]

I guess I don't understand why this is such a huge deal. Online Poker seems like a shitty way to gamble.
