Hey Lee,

thanks for all the details and great news :f_cool:

My cashier on FTP was protected with the security token. Can you please confirm if the security tokens will still work? Or will I log in to my account only using nickname + password? Or can I expect issues?

Thanks a lot,
Pavel

dunno if this question has been answered somewhere. I reckon this is one of the more important questions to be answered since many of us had a security token.

Hi Lee

Q: Full Tilt froze my account before they shut down (investigation for collusion, chip dumping, etc). What happens to my account balance?
A: If you are a U.S. player, you will have to deal with DoJ . For Rest of the World players, we will restart the investigation and take it to its appropriate conclusion

I have before a FULLTILT POKER account has been closed before in FULLTILT collapse, more than 700 dollars in the account, and now I want the account where the money taken out thank you!

Hello.

This may have been asked before. I apologize for not going the whole thread.

Is there gonna be an investigation what it was exactly that went wrong in Full Tilt Management of which the results are gonna be made public? (i.e. mismanagement, stealing)

Dont getme wrong I am greatful and appreciate all that Pokerstars does for the Fulltilt player base. But the fact remains that a 9 figure sum of money that was deposited by players disappeared for more tha a year. I really hope the covering this debt pays off for pokerstars since its money PS might otherwise use for promotion for their own players. Also people who had large sums of money on Full tilt might have gotten in serious financial problems. I thinkthe least they deserve is knowing who to blame and maybe even sue. After all debts are usually paid with interest which pokerstars obv wont do. But in my opinion the people to ge the interest from are still out there.

Why do you presume that? :f_confused: The whole point of the deal was to allow Pokerstars & FTP to be one of the first sites to enter the US when poker is legislated.

The agreement does expressly allow for both PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker brands to apply for such licenses in the U.S. whenever they are offered.
