Balls, me neither. I was going to withdraw my freshly-ground 1.5k yesterday to stop me playing and get me to focus on my exams but forgot to. Dammit...

Victor woulda been mad just like the rest of us, but he has no money to lose. Sweet victory, superdouche.

u broke bro?

Will this affect EU users too? PS been working just fine all along, can't even see the website changes other users are reporting.
04-15-2011 , 07:10 PM
Anyone know/have any idea as to what will happen to the sites not indicted?

Is it a case of 'their time will come'?

Don't think you qualify as a whistleblower if you get arrested and cut a deal..

They still have RUSH freerolls with $150 guaranteed.
