US players will not get refunded by 'Stars.We will have to file a claim with the DOJ for our money.

Everything government touches is a major pain in the ass.

Said someone posting to a message board on the internet.
Also, I'm pretty sure Full Tilt did just fine running themselves in to the ground and laundering $400m without the government touching it.

But they only had to do it because the US government shut down their source of financing. C'mon, GT, when did you become a fan of Kyl, Goodlatte and the rest of the social conservatives?
I'm not excusing FullTilt for their wrongdoing, be consider this. PokerStars are the good guys here because they were better at bank fraud than FullTilt. But, the bottom line is they don't get into trouble if there's no UIGEA stuffed in the Safe Ports Bill at the 11th hour by the Christian nanny-state right.

Yeah, not a huge fan of this part, but hell, it's a lot better than things were looking a week ago.
The latest I am reading is the DOJ is talking about possibly NOT refunding "winnings," or you know, the majority of the balances everyone with a substantial amount of money locked up would have. Losing players would likely have small balances, winners much larger ones. I think it would be so very difficult to track an account's entire deposit/withdraw/play history to determine that though, so hopefully they just let everyone cash out in full. I still have faith. |
