I don't even get how you guys would sell your FT money, the person would just have to trust that you'll give it to them?

Username/passwords I guess? Pretty shady anyhow.

Maybe I have the luxury to be bored of this bull**** because I'm a UK player who has had no problem playing or withdrawing from FTP since BLACK FRIDAY but I seriously doubt all the doomsayers predicting the end of FTP will be posting here once FTP actually do return their money.

thats easy to say when your not sweating your entire roll

Now do you people who questioned when I stated that we be waiting a long time before FTP ever decides to give us our money think I was just blowing smoke? LMAO gee what a shock, they still have no clue. I told you this before, this site was a joke to begin with and now with this stalling bullchit this should make you believe that these jackasses at FTP better either get their ass moving or just tell us the truth that we will never get our money back.

You're right, but that doesn't change the fact that this mass hysteria helps no one.

I mean for all largish transactions I've seen there have been contracts. The one I did I just wrote myself but I required id and I'm fairly certain it would hold up in court. One friend who did a large amount had an 8-page contract written up by lawyers. I honestly think you're safer when it's a large amount as long as you are 100% you know who they are and you take the proper precautions. When someone scams you for a few hundred you're kind of out of luck. When it's 5 figures it becomes worth it to sue and the odds they get away with the scam are just about 0 given that if caught they will be slapped with a felony and have to pay it back anyway.

and what does sweating it help you? Keeping updated with the latest news so that you can make intelligent decisions = smart. Getting super hyped at every small rumor and slamming on doug for not giving you to the minute updates of the board meetings helps you in no way and actually probably hurts your chances of getting what you want. I realize most people react irrationally when faced with stress but we're supposed to be poker players right? Try to look at it rationally and see what it will accomplish.

If the funds are "seized" then full tilt screwed itself and everyone else by not keeping balances separate.

It doesn't work as you describe. Different lawyers provide different advice. Because PS lawyers worked quicker is irrelevant.

threats ITT !

I'm still someone calm as of now, and have a butt ton of money online, please keep working hard FTP and get all the medals converted to points etc so we can get da monies...I would be busting my ass though to get US payers paid before the WSOP starts in June, that way you can look like hero's

FYI, from what i have read, some euro countries are getting paid, hopefully the international business of FTP will return to normal soon, I am somewhat surprised that even deviated from the norm as much as it did.

The Money At This Point is Nothing More Then A Promise from Full Tilt, That They will pay players back, When they get the money that is.

But the fact is that 90% of poker players are losing players. That's why there is money to be made, if all were rational we wouldn't be playing poker in first place.

If people won't be able to buy any cash bonuses or cash tickets with their points and will have to purchase things from the Fulltilt store, open it back up and let everybody order their 52 tee shirts

glassman · 05-17-2011, 10:12 AM

My MGR hit for all the purchases I made has on 4/15 has been returned. It says I earned the money this week so it looks like rakebackpro's will be paying us on friday.
