On the other hand I've got a whole lot more spending money for Vegas now. :wav:

Just better safe than sorry.

Richard~;264107 wrotefrom what I've heard it's only affecting US players right now

This is also what I am reading...I can't cash out because I just made a deposit to Stars, (gotta wait 48hrs) but again, it isn't much...think I will run the gauntlet with it and play a bunch of the overlays (if there are) tonight and cash out as much as I can as soon as I can.

Moose having no issues cashing out of either site today makes me more comfortable and thinking that it is mostly a US issue (for the time being)

HVEEPOKER

Playing on Stars right now. Not too many Americans are playing. None in this
sng and only 1 out of 280 for the 4K I would normally play.
Usually half the registrations are American

I can't cash out from FT. I get "can't establish secure connection to server"

Maybe, we know next to nothing at this point other than nothing good can happen, lol. I think the only way people never see their money is some worst case scenario that is unlikely to happen, but I can't say for certain.

I have less than a hundo on either of the big 2. If Uncle Sugar needs my coin that bad, meh . . .

In the meantime, and in between time, Imma gonna play . . .

Reports from Andrew Feldman (@ESPN_Poker on Twitter) is that all 3 sites that were hit today will be down everywhere in the next 48hours, this includes where they are legal

actyper

Stars has a $5k limit for mb every 24hrs and $15k max over 3 days. Some guys are going to have some trouble.

FT instant withdrawal, that was pretty quick.

This Sunday will be interesting, too bad I have to go out tonight, all the guarantees are still there for tonight.

For how long? Anybody know? Best guess?

Cerberus

I have about $55 on Stars and about .55 on Tilt lol.

Is it wrong I'm thinking of tossing it on one of the $55 70K Guarantees in the next couple of days and just hoping for some crazyass rungood :)

I'll be playing every guarantee from 8pm to 8am - I'm going to be dead tired at Buzzards but hopefully richer.

Only if you can cash it out in the end...lol Which, I am personally not counting on..but here's to hoping!

Licentia

These American sons of b******!!! They have no right to play with our money on these pokersites. They are trying to seize all assets, yet the vast majority of those assets are likely not from American players but from players from other countries.

USDOJ: Contact the Department

I think we should all email them - sparing no expletives and tell them to F*** off to Hell!!!

Opinions? :arghh:

Milo

Yeah, that'll work.

As for the $$$ on those sites, it is like chips in the pot. It isn't yours until you cash it out. Until then, it is similar to a promisory note (i.e. a promise to pay).
