I requested a check from Stars while I was freaking out when this 1st hit. But I cancelled it after I thought about how valid the Payment processor's check might or might not be. I'd rather wait it out than be sent a worthless check and deal with bank return fees.

I gave wire transfer a shot for 10K, well from PS.....We will see

OH... F U Republicans. The POSs that are against govt intrusions into your lives, are the ones spearheading that Govt intrusion into out lives :toilet:

Just put in a withdrawal request and spent my points in the store. Will I ever see that money again?

Some interestin stuff goin on fer sure. The US West Coast server for PS has shut down, and the MIT ( Boston ) server for Absolute Poker/UB has shut down.

For the web sites, or the poker software? I'm on the west coast playing on Absolute now and hope my session isn't unceremoniously killed mid-play.

I imagine it's because they're swamped. Bunch of items are sold out.

FWIW, I was just able to log on to FTP (receive the latest update) and register for an MTT. Still can log onto Stars but can not do anything but watch what other people are playing. :(

Yeah, FT isn't blocking anyone. Only Stars AFAIK.

I unregistered from the FTP MTTs I entered cause it just seems a matter of time before thay stop allowing US Players. UB or bodog seem better bets for now>

I just spoke with the customer service rep at bodog and he assured me they are in the clear with this. I still took out 3/4 of my funds just to be safe. I feel horrible for all of you. I hate our government!!!
