C'mon man, read. That question was answered on day 2. but in case you haven't had a chance , I'll recap for some coaching sessions (seriously, teach me please)
From Lee Jones Pokerstars acquires thread
"Q: I’m an American (that is, I have a Full Tilt account with an American address as of June 29, 2011). But I have moved out of the US and have received permission to play on PokerStars. Can I play on the newly reopened FTP?
A: Anybody residing outside the U.S. (and the IT/EE/ES/BE/FR/DK countries) can play on Full Tilt Poker once it re-launches. We are still determining the exact mechanism by which formerly American Full Tilt players will restart their play on Full Tilt (from outside the U.S.).
Q: Can a player who is defined as a U.S. player, but is now living outside the U.S., simply reopen his account and have access to the funds in it?
A: No. You have to apply to the U.S. DoJ for remission (i.e. to get your money back). Again, we don't know the exact mechanism by which former U.S. players will restart at Full Tilt; we'll let you know as soon as we have it confirmed."
Cliffs.
No you can't just re open your account as a ROW if your account had a USA address as of 29th June 2011.
You will be able to re open the account once it has been verified that you have moved but the balance of that account will have to be retrieved via the DOJ/US Gov. The process for this has not been confirmed as yet.
