These companies knew this could happen. They are most certainly well prepared and have a back-up plan.

You know how people write posting in epic thread. Well here we go, posting in what I predict to be the all time largest 2p2 thread EVER.

Sites still working fine for me using Google DNS from Toronto, Canada. However, the Stars site banner says "PokerStars.eu". o_O

Durrrr should issue a Billion Dollar Challenge to the Government

50.000 hands at 5 Mio/10 Mio blinds. All poker player bankrolls combined against the U.S. Government "Bankroll"

The ultimate showdown for the fate of poker.
Screw them up, Durrrr...

Keep asking myself:

a. If I can cash out should I?
b. If I can sit at a table, should I just play my whole roll?
c. What's for dinner?
d. Should I go to Commerce tonight?

I like how stars sends me the 300 back from the check that bounced plus the 15 for fees. Thanks. Now I have 315 extra dollars in my stars account and i owe my bank money. Also have 2 more checks on the way that i know will never clear. Something tells me i need to just chalk this all up as a loss (big one) and move on with life. Anyone have a similar experience through this whole mess?
