Fergusson neither for that matter. I really don’t think ripping off people is what they had in mind when FTP started. May be I am just naïve (or less cynical)
What does it matter if Lederer or Ferguson had any intent to rip anybody off when they started Full Tilt? I doubt anybody seriously thinks they had specific intent to rip anybody off. However, I think there's plenty of evidence to suggest they acted in a matter that was highly detrimental to their players and both should have been able to foresee that this behavior could lead to players losing their deposits. It just so happens that this same highly detrimental behavior ended up lining both of their pockets quite nicely.
The irony is definitely there. Gamblers are going to gamble and both Lederer and Ferguson gambled with everybody's bankrolls.
You can spin it any way you want Genher but your heroes messed up big time and as a result many thousands of people are left without access to money they needed to pay for rent, mortgages, food, school, utilities and other necessary items.

Their customer service sucks. It's hardly surprising none of that information is available.
