my guess, full tilt guy is just laughing

"Federal authorities also have filed restraining orders against 76 bank accounts in 14 countries" seriously who does the US think they are.....

I think the poker community has enough money and enough brains to deal with this...

I'm also guessing full tilt and whomever knew what they were doing and already had lawyers look it over...US doesn't have enough money to deal with this....

this is where 2+2 becomes the new governemnt, no democracy, just sane smart people....>:D
Pretty sure the games will continue to run as they do not use the DNS system for connections. The IP is coded into the executable.
It also says that the seized the domain names for each company. Anyone have any trouble logging into Full Tilt or PokerStars today ?
I had no problems logging in to all 3 sites, about 10mins ago

On both right now
Wtf is wrong with the US government?
Emptied all my accounts. I don't really play online anymore anyways.
reports on 2+2 is that players cannot register for tournaments, cash out, or do player to player transfers
I have already received more than $3k from fulltilt in my moneybookers.
didn't someone on here mention that Tilt must think something is going to happen since they added multi entry tournaments and were going to be starting another FTOPS so soon?

Okay with Stars too.
Playing on Tilt right now . . . this better not mess up the $25.00 bonus they're going to owe me next week . . .
LOL. If this is true you cant possibly understand how good I run. To be explained later.
