'Black Friday' and associated fallout megathread

[MicheleW]

Okay ... been years and this is what gets me back on Cardschat! Best forum. Others were very had to get into ... slow.

I got into PS and requested a withdrawal - getting check in 15 days. (we'll see). I wonder what bank it will be drawn on. That should be interesting.

FTP - cannot get in. There's a update that cannot download and tells me to try again later. So we'll see what happens to my account there. Tried to download FTP again to get in and can't get a download site. But on one, there's old Jesus telling me "US Players Welcome" ... LOL

My thought was ... wonder what this year's wsop in Vegas will be like if this isn't resolved ... numbers down? a players march on the Strip? Should be fun. I'd love to go this year.

Hope this turns out well.

P.S. I snipped a shot of my account to prove my $ just in case. Might be a good idea is you've requested a withdrawal.

As I try and read through all the pages as fast as i can....

Is there any way currently for US players to get their money out of their accounts (On FTP)? (So far the answer is no?)

Thanks all.

no, as of now the US accounts are all frozen, except for maybe the team full tilt players, but they probally dont have access either. The only way that was discussed before full tilt shut down US play was to chip dump to other inernational players, but obviously that option has been taken away.

So now, there are not very many options, but, for some reason withdrawing is back and transfers are open to me, i wonder if i cna make a transfer to an us player.

 

[Hordling]

Yeah I logged in to seen that the Withdraw was suspended for myself (probably along with everyone else). Didn't know if there was another way, although I figured probably not.

Thanks.

Just downloaded FTP and got in - but notice states no US withdrawals. Also ... no Player to Player transfers.

well numbers will definitely be down significantly seeing as a huge number of the WSOP ME field satellites in online.

I can still log on to UB and play for real money, anyone else?

 

[jinglebomb]

Same and on FT but cant withdraw, transfer, and deposit

Yes, and I feel compelled to do so, watching all the time for the "no US players" notice to be introduced. Or will they remain in the US market? They didn't block Washington when Stars and Tilt did.

Interesting to see how this will affect Carbon and the Merge network. They have been accepting US players for years.

These charges relate to banks and 'payment processors' so let's hope Carbon have been using different methods from the Big 3 now facing legal action.

If I had a big bankroll on any poker site I would now be looking to take most of it out until the situation becomes clearer.

 

[tusabes]

What other methods? If there were a dif/legal option I'm sure the big 3 would have chose that option.

I'm not sure if you're being funny or not...but capslock was pointing out that in post 710 it says that you can contact support to get T$ exchanged for real money.

 

[jinglebomb]

So looks like cakepoker and Lockpoker will be the next big sites for US poker migration.

I'm never funny. Cute maybe, but not funny. There are times I've been fuzzy though.
