Yeah, just wishful thinking.

I think I remember it being talked about a while back that some of the big poker sites had DNS reg'd in the US and how it might cause them problems later (assuming that this is the case and they are US reg'd DNS)?

I just cashed out from FT in seconds, God bless em

screw your government, to think I was supporting Obama from afar

I doubt the feds can confiscate records of the sites' users and go after them for income/tax evasion. Well, maybe someday, but for now it's clear that the U.S. Gov't does not want its citizens playing poker for real monies. They're going right to the companies and throwing the book at them. Obv that's the bigger fish to fry.

Been trying for a while and I can't. Says can't establish a secure connection.

cashed out on both ft and stars.

I'm withdrawing all my money asap....

BOOM

I cashed out the max possible on PS via Echeck and paper check.

withdrawed from both hope it works

Thoughts on this?

"Restraining orders were issued against more than 75 bank accounts used by the poker companies and their payment processors"

I don't play on any of the sites affected - all of my funds are on TruePoker. However my payment processor, InstaDebit, is almost certainly caught up in all of this mess. Am I safer just leaving my funds on this site for the time being?

And best of luck to all of you with money on the affected sites.

Well it was fun while it lasted

hey guise, how about everyone doesn't just post whether it still works where they live since that doesn't matter, it's going to go down everywhere soon

The hammer has fallen... good luck to those with large BR tied up in those sites. I can only imagine the amount of withdrawel requests being entered as I type this.

Hey Howard How is the weather in Costa Rica???? Is Jesus with you?
