$7300... I'm wondering if I could just move to Germany where my brother lives for a week or so cash out there and come back. So pizzed. I already had a transfer to my brother initiated but stopped it cause my card was still working and the fee was so high. StupidStupidStupid!!!Now I just saw this: http://www.pokerwallet.com/Maybe I'll send them a e-mail and ask how much they want...probably 30% or more, what do you think?

$9DAMMIT THE FBI OWES ME A PIZZA!!!!!! Okay, a small pizza. Seriously though, and yes I'm completely out of the loop, but your guys' money which is now in limbo/seized....was this money securely in Neteller or was it in transit between Neteller and a pokersite? Because if it's the latter, I would think that the sites would and should be held responsible for that money.

Sucks that alot of you have lost your money, but did you really think your money was secure with an off shore company (whether it be Neteller or any online poker site), that can easily take your money and you have really no recourse to get your money back. It isn't like you can go to the police or anything.I tried online poker didn't like it at all and I play live, much easily to deal with. I do realize alot of you either don't have access to a real casino, prefer to play online, or are too young to play at a real casino.Good luck on getting your money back btw.

Pot_Odds_RAC is that you?i typed out a big long post that was nasty, instead i'll ask you to have a nice day and to be aware that this is probably a sensitive topic to a lot of people here so a bit of decorum would most likely be appreciated. :club:

No I am not that person.Honestly I didn't mean to be insulting or hurtful to anyone that lost their money. Just hope that people will be more careful in the future.

1130. Just glad I started cashing most of it out in october, but a little mad at myself for not putting it all in stars when this **** started going down like a lot of others did. I was thinking that if I put it in stars I would have no way to get it out, but I could have just had them send me a check.... Doh!

I only have about half of what PMJ has locked up, but unfortunately for me its about 80% of my online bankroll which has decimated my ability to play much now. I think I've played once in the past ten days or so, which is waaaay below normal for me. Could be a good thing i guess since i've been running bad and playing worse. Was hoping to play a few of the FTOPS events though and now that's out . I hate that Bill Frist.

$821I had just taken $1000 off Stars before the Neteller stuff hit the fan. As soon as it cleared into Neteller, I transferred $200 onto FT and requested the rest back to my bank account. I don't let my money sit on Neteller at all since I was on of the early Neteller hackies. I stopped using Neteller at all and was using Firepay before they shut off Americans. My Neteller to bank withdrawal was supposed to take 2 days. Day #3 it still wasn't in my bank account and the arrests happened.

Zeig HIEL!!!!!Man, is this country slipping down a scary slope....... :club:
It's been scary since they suspended habeas corpus for certain people, decided the Constitution is toilet paper if the say the magic word "terrorist" and started closing our borders.Americans have been preetty self-righteous about the Germans letting the Nazis take over, and saying we'd never let it happen. We are letting it happen. You know how many Arab-Americans were haiuled away after 9/11? Do you know how many are still gone? No charges, no trials, their families unable to even confirm they are alive because the so-called "Homeland Security" (just like a Nazi blueprint, sin't it? A national police force.) tied the records up with the excuse of "national security?"Stalin would be proud. Certainly Hitler would. If some terrorist wants to kill an American, give him my address, but restore my freedom. The job of my government is not to protect me (as if they are or could) the job of the goverment is to protect the Constitution. It's all we have, it IS America.

mmm, finally people are catching on... :club: Unfortunately public has gotten accustomed to the government being there to "save the day", and it reality it makes the situation so much worse. The government should be afraid of us, not the other way around. It's called tyranny and i hate it. If americans don't get their act together, the same type of thing will happen as in the Weimar Republic. (reichstagg fire, massive patriot act-like legislation, usurpation of power, invading countries...blah blah blah, right?)

Thank you Bank of Jeff..
You're welcome, sir.
If you're reading this Jeff, the guys in the van, that's been parked outside your house for the last 2 days are not cleaning your neighbors carpets. Just run out the back now!
Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.I've put this out there before, I'll say it again. If you have money you want to get online, pm me, we'll work something out. If you have money you want to move from one site to another...mainly stars and FT...PM me and we'll work something out.Hoosier will vouch for my honesty, as will any of the mods at FCP.I think it sucks what your government has done. I feel like I'm starting up the underground railroad of poker.
