What happens to US players who have relocated? What about if they relocated (and thus their country is changed) but are now living back in the US?

the problem with your case is someone else is getting rakeback from your play.

What will happen to cashouts that were pending at the time ftp lost its license?

My account was banned years ago because I made a deposit at my friend's account because he couldn't deposit. Is it possible I will get my account back? Ty!

Since I'm not only one of the poker players but also very smart overall, I deposited the first time between Black Friday and the shut down of FTP. So I didn't clear my First Deposit Bonus when the Site went offline. Will I be able to continue clearing this bonus?

Great thread!

I cant recall if I had any $ in my account when this went down. However I know that I had bought some tournament tickets to The Sunday Brawl with FTPs. What is going to happend to them?

Please create a completely new rewards program from scratch. Previous one was a mess in too many ways.

I really hope the new FTP doesn't become like Pokerstars.
What made FTP so great, was not only the software, but the willingness to give up rake and to take risks for the quality of the games and innovations.

-FTP had no SNE program for less bot-like grinders
-maximum of 8 tables (16 by request) made the games much faster than Pokerstars, which is infested by 24tablers who constantly time out or use their full time bank for every single action
-FTP was the first site to solve the ratholing-shortstacker problem
-lot's of deep table and ante-table action
-no seperation of fast and normal tables, because the software was pretty fast at default

The games on Pokerstars are much less fun than on FTP, the gaming environment is disgusting at the moment. As soon as a fish busts, everyone is instantly sitting out, even on low stakes, which is ridiculous.
FTP tables weren't any softer than at Pokerstars, but definitely more action packed, faster and more fun.



Q: Will FTP continue to deliver completely different gameplay than Pokerstars or will both sites become very similar over time?

Are you going to get rid of multi-entry? Please do

Plus 1 and hoping FTP will try as hard as possible to be distinct from PStars.

Black Card still happening? And is mine coming in the mail or what? Any word on whether or not it can still be used to pick up chicks?

Welcome to 2+2, FTPMarkus.

Looking forward to grinding the FTP tables while surfing the FTP forums!

Am I the only US player who would want to start fresh and have a new username when everything gets legalized?
I don't want to be tied to an old account that existed when everything was under the table and skeezy.

I'm a U.S. (former) player but going to chime in that FTP NEEDS a 24-7 Customer Service phone line. Absolutely insane that this never existed.

Danish license please

Please reconsider applying for danish license. There are so many danish players who want to play at full tilt and Pokerstars already has a danish license.

Take a look at this thread on the leading danish poker forum:

http://www.pokernet.dk/forum/fulltil...sh-licens.html

So please reconsider.

Thanks.

What if someone had a ROW account before June 29 but has since moved back to usa. I know they are considered ROW but what If they don't have access to those particular bank accounts from ROW and the address for check mailing purposes. How will withdrawals work then?

A statement on countries that offer regulated poker that require a seperate license would be welcome. I understand that it is on the bottom list of your worries before getting the site back up again, but does FTP plan to reevaluate these decisions once the other major work has been done? Or is it not planned to discuss these things for now and will we most likely not see FTP back on these networks in the foreseeable future?

How will it happen for players from Belgium to have our money back?

Welcome Shyam. Glad to see this and to have you here.

I and other mods are deleting the low/no content/off-topic so we can keep this thread focused. After a question is asked a couple times please refrain from quoting & +1'ing to avoid clutter. Lets wait for a response before repeating or pushing a topic.

Thanks,
Mike
