Cash in bank account. E-checks (small amount though).

Cashed out my pathetic rollz from Pokerstars to Moneybookers. Took a little longer than usual, but worked.

Glad I went tits-up on FTP just 1+ week ago and did not bother depoing.

Scandinavian with PS MTT withdrawal symptoms.

Has he been lucky for 4 months? No, he's just too good and aggressive", "Look at Mr.Y, he won or final tabled 4 out of last 6 tournaments. He's like a poker god", "Online players just can't play live games. Tossing chips is different than a mouse click"

All of these statements are nothing but lack of knowledge about what one is talking. While for succesfully playing live you have to possess some extra skills it's just impossible to pursue a respectable career if lady luck doesn't help you. I'm not saying being up isn't possible. I'm just saying that for receiving the worth of your time spent, everything should go in your way.

I won't even bother try to explain the case about live MTT's...

in limit hold'em its more clearcut. Its very dubious to be a professional limit player under 40/80 unless your a prop. And even at 40/80 being a prop matters a lot. Only really at 100/200+ where you can make a really good living on your own.

That made my morning... Been playing live since the crash on Friday... never have before. Its a lot easier just like the guy above mentioned. You never spew or make dummy calls because you cant just click for the hell of it. You can actually read people and its easier to know exactly what they have ( 1 - 2$ tables )... Havent had a losing grind yet. Im glad the Internet went down now. Make sure you research tells and body language and be aware of your own, only major difference.

Emails to ".com" won't work.

For stars you have to change it to ".eu"

Not sure if that is the same for FTP.

For FTP it's now ".co.uk"

For those confused by such problems: the reason that emails to ".com" won't work anymore is because the FBI seized their .com web domains, which includes those email addresses ending in "@sitename.com"

*dumb question*: moving to UK (for a short travel) is it enough for playing?
