DiamondDixie 12 Posted May 17, 2011 Share Posted May 17, 2011 Kathy Liebert all fired up on Twitter:pokerkat I thought Full Tilt cared about their image and reputation.

FCP Bob 1,320 Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 WSOP is coming up quick. Think theyd want this settled ASAP.If you're referring to Full Tilt it's pretty obvious that for whatever reason they aren't in a good position to cash out all the American players and also keep enough money liquid to pay out the players from the rest of the World.Poker Stars keeps Player's money both segrated from general operational funds and also those funds are protected from being exposed to any issues the site has.Full Tilt has published that hey don't segrate Player's money and it's all just mixed in with their general operational funds. If they had that money liquid and available I'm sure they would be processing withdrawals with it for Americans. If they had put that money into investments that take some time to liquidate that could be one reason for the delay. Also it's possible that a large amount of the money has been tied up by the DOJ. It's also possible that they've spent too much money over the years on distribtutions to their owner's or related companies. We really can't know for sure. Link to post Share on other sites

FCP Bob 1,320 Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 more indictments:http://www.justice.gov/usao/md/Public-Affa...esIndicted.html This is really interesting.The Feds set up a sting payment processor that the gambling sites used to move money to and from players so the Feds are going to have all the information about the transactions if I'm reading this correctly.Also note that this was run out of the Maryland office of the DOJ and not the Southern District of New York like the the Stars, Tilt and AP indictments.Since they set up a smallish processor it makes sense that it's smaller sites that are affected by this and not the really large sites.

Also this would seem to make sites be quite wary of doing business with a new processor without extensive research first, hence making payouts just that much more difficult. Ugh, we really need to get this regulated here in the US. Link to post Share on other sites
