Same reason why Enron stock is still worth so much imo

Re: Durrrr reiterates promise to players and more questions answered

Great interview and great responses, the situation is very delicate and he obviously has to to consider many things including the effect his answers will have on those who are owed money and his own future with other sites if he ever decides to get involved with that side of poker again hence his understandable vagueness. Out of all the big name pros he probably had less responsibility than any of them, he came in late to FTP and his actions have been one that put the game and the customers first and yet he's been the only one to make a sacrifice should FTP go under complelely.

Davidian's response is trolling in the extreme. Just add him to ignore if the mods won't ban him (again). Click this link if you don't know how to : http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/pr...gnore&u=322870

To be fair it was said when it seemed that there were very very heavy jail time awaiting those connected to ftp

What about the Durrrr Challenge vs Jungleman. Is that still on?

Hopefully sometime soon we’ll be restarting that. It could be weird if we need to move out of the country to play, it seemed like that was what we were going to have to do for a while. But now it looks like there might be poker in Nevada and other states.

It probably has more to do with the fact that playing from within the US is something sites close your account and confiscate your funds for...

Highly unlikely he'd be playing from within the US.

its pretty obv., that he probably wont pay anyone with 0-500$ in their account cauz thats just bad luck for those guys.. ppl with more than 500 / 1000$ will get some of those 2 million dollars (galfond + dwan), i would guess

and since we learned only 5% of players had more than 100$ in their account, it will be ok
