What countries are you guys in. Maybe they are doing it one country at a time which means Australia will probably be last.

Can you please make HU games king of the hill? Would also love to see trackers banned from the site completely.

You have the opportunity to make online poker fun again

Now I get an e-mail that says this

Following re-launch, you will have complete access to your account - including your full balance - and you can once again play on the innovative online poker platform that made Full Tilt Poker home to serious online poker players.

What this will mean for you:
•normal access to your Full Tilt Poker player account with your current password
•renewed access to all Full Tilt Poker real and play-money games
•access to your total balance without restriction, including withdrawals



So not sure if they are changing their mind or what, all I know is I don't have a current proof of address.
they didn't change their mind. 1st email was sent to some players only with balances over 3.5k.
2nd email was/is being sent to all players.

those 2 emails are unrelated.
If you have been asked to verify your account, then you will have to do just that before you can cash out.

Thanks OP for all the Q&A's!

I do also exspect some sort of welcome bonus, and i Hope it won't be a depoist bonus, but just a $500-$1k bonus that we can just 'turn on' as long as we don't cash out or something

(i beleive i won't be the only one who doens't jsut have $500-$1k avaible to use for a depoist bonus..)

No, since the DOJ hasn't released how they will handle this remission process. When they do you will have no problem finding the info. since I'm sure there will big a new thread with an overload of info. and, especially, questions.

First thing I did mate when I saw some posters had "discovered" their email in that section.

How many days ago did you receive this? Maybe because my account is under $1k they haven't gotten around to it yet!

Thanks for the info!

Oh yeah, you wouldn't get the first one with only $1K in your account anyway. I got the second one yesterday, but I wouldn't worry about not receiving that one anyway because there really isn't anything too important you need to know in that one.

Here is the e-mail people - it's really nothing new.

Dear XXXXXXXXXXXX,

Full Tilt Poker will re-launch under new ownership on November 6th, 2012.

The Rational Group, which owns and operates PokerStars, acquired assets of Full Tilt Poker in August 2012 and appointed new senior management to re-open and operate the site as a separate brand to PokerStars, providing the online poker community with another high-quality poker platform.

Following re-launch, you will have complete access to your account - including your full balance - and you can once again play on the innovative online poker platform that made Full Tilt Poker home to serious online poker players.

This means you'll soon be able to return to the Full Tilt Poker games and tournaments that you've known and loved for years, secure in the knowledge that your experience is now backed by the same account security and game integrity that millions of PokerStars players have trusted for more than 10 years.

Full Tilt Poker now operates under a license in Isle of Man, which is among the most trusted and rigorous e-gaming regulatory jurisdictions in the world. The Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission maintains vigilant standards for e-gaming, particularly the safeguarding of player funds. Information on these standards can be found here.

Since August, we've been carefully reviewing all Full Tilt player accounts in preparation for re-opening. In the coming weeks we will be completing the restoration of all non-US player accounts including yours, in preparation for re-launch day.

What this will mean for you:
normal access to your Full Tilt Poker player account with your current password
renewed access to all Full Tilt Poker real and play-money games
access to your total balance without restriction, including withdrawals
We thank you for your patience during this time. We will update you further as re-launch day approaches. For more information please see our Full Tilt Poker account FAQ.

In the meantime, we welcome your feedback and ideas to help make Full Tilt Poker your number one poker site - please click here to visit the feedback page.

Sincerely,

Full Tilt Poke
