I don't think it obviously concludes anything of the sort. Firstly this was her estimation of the value of FT and even if she had won the case she would be extremely unlikely to get this. Secondly it wasn't based on earnings lost over 4 years, the $40mill was based on the net worth of 1% ownership of FT. It's also worth noting that the yearly "wages" given to Team Full Tilt players does not necessarily reflect the % of the company they have negotiated. The sums given to individual players are undisclosed and based on private arrangements between FT and that player. As far as I'm aware it doesn't necessarily work on a dividend basis.

Re: durrrr signs with team full tilt

Tom Dwan won't get a share of FTP for free!

And i doubt he is able to buy a share at the moment. (maybe 000,1%)

That video is a joke. Click play and you see Andy Bloch with his stupid hat. Next up is Chris Ferguson with his gay hat. Just as you think it can't get any worse, you see Gordon followed by Lederer

Wasn't it $50 on paradise? And what he never went broke and had perfect bankroll management and was tilt proof from the get go? Bollocks. He still grinded his way up like no other, but that comment from Ferguson about he still has that $40 online was laughable.

Are you dense? Every member of Team Full Tilt gets a %, thats why there are so few members of Team Full Tilt. Full Tilt Pros, on the other hand, only get $35/hr and 100% rakeback.

Do you even read threads? This is what he held out for, a % of the site.

their comments were fine, i thought. gordon in particular surprised me -- when he called tom the online poker player who most deserved to become a member of Team Full Tilt he sounded sincere

sorry, i have a job and i can't read each single thread or post.

I said: He won't get a share for free!

All the original members of "Team Full Tilt" have a share because they added together (some of) their money to build up FTP.

When you want a share of FTP nowadays you need to find someone who has already a share and is willing to sell it!

I can't imagine to get a share, for free, of a company which is worth maybe 10-40 billion $$$. That would be absurd!
