[insidemanpoker]

Weren't people claiming they had sources that news was going to be released TODAY? Or have I confused myself?

I live in NY and I played 12K hands of online poker this month. I cashed a withdrawal check last month.

Wow, someone should open a book, there is so much room there for betting

Might then get some money back from all that owed by FTP!

Who will offer odds??

Disclaimer: This opinion is pure speculation and isn't based on any sources or facts.

Announcement by the end of Feb or March 1st - 100%
Odds the deal goes through - 100%

I'm optimistic

[oneonth3run]

Odds for an announcement by March 1 -- 85%+
Odds deal goes through -- 55%

I so hope you are right KKGrinder, everything I have is crossed for luck that it happens.

don't cross your avatar, that seems like the exact opposite of what you'd want to do.

From the last paragraph of the Gaming intelligence article:

...He will want the Full Tilt deal signed up and the website relaunched well ahead of that. His next deadline is the end of February when the initial deal with the DoJ expires.

'that' being ISPT in Wembley. I've been told by a few people that the end of Feb deadline can be extended a few weeks if Tapie needs it.

Please I hope that they don't extend anymore, driving me crazy the waiting. Really hope it is announced next week and we all know where we are, hopefully for the best.
