they definitely screwed themselves

illuminati getting real tight

Pokerstars had their domain seized as well.

http://www.pokerstars.com/

They did but they were the only company to pull through and continue business like usual, minus USA players.

Did not know that, I thought they pulled through minus the US but sadly it's too much of pain to fund and collect now in the US via proxies etc, I haven't even looked.

Lucky I'm in the UK, its always nice playing a game of online poker

you find the games softer or harder minus all of us USA donks?

After the seizure, Pokerstars was able to fulfill all of the payout requests within a couple weeks, whereas Full Tilt was only able to pay a small fraction of money owed, exposing what appears to be a very poorly run operation with not a lot of cash on hand.

However, as of just a few days ago it appears Full Tilt has been sold and the new owners have vowed to pay out all money due.

"A group of European investors have purchased Full Tilt Poker in a deal that could see US players recover up to $150 million.

Full Tilt Poker was indicted on April 15 by the US Government on charges of money laundering and bank fraud. The company has been unable to pay back US players.

The company had its license yanked yesterday with the site down ever since.

From the LA Times:

Attorneys associated with Full Tilt said the company signed an agreement Thursday with a group of investors who would put up enough money to pay back players and in doing so attain a majority stake in Full Tilt's Irish parent company, Pocket Kings. The attorneys spoke anonymously because of the sensitivity of ongoing negotiations with the federal prosecutors in Manhattan who brought the charges.

The money is also intended to allow the company to settle a civil lawsuit brought against it by the U.S. attorney's office at the same time as the criminal indictment, the attorneys said.

The government is seeking to recover $3 billion from Full Tilt, Poker Stars and Absolute Poker.

This story is developing?"

Well I came first in a couple 700 player tournies since the US players were booted. I don't really play that much these days but now and again I do like to play a tourny or 2. Still a lot of Canadian players though. Donks are everywhere not just US players.
