Pokerstars is an online poker site. Pokerstrategy is an educational training site. They are not the same site. The TSL3 is sponsored by pokerstrategy.com.

Federal prosecutors in Manhattan may have declared war against the world’s biggest online poker companies, but the two sides are working together to return funds belonging to U.S. players.

Under an agreement announced today, the government will allow PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker to use their web sites to facilitate the withdrawal of U.S. players’ funds held in accounts with the companies. The five-page domain-name use agreements with PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker will also let the poker companies continue to use their domain names to offer for-money online poker games to players outside the U.S. In return the world’s two biggest online poker companies have agreed not to facilitate for-money poker games for U.S. players and to let an independent monitor verify their compliance with the deal.

That's a relief to know that the we will get our money back at least.

I am someone "in the know" with this stuff and maybe can offer some help. I grunched the thread pretty quickly, but I feel like I've used TL a lot and haven't given a ton back, and I can help here. There's some misinformation in this thread from my quick glance at it.

So if you guys have any questions about what is going on, let me know ITT and I'll reply the best I can. I am "karak2p2" from the Quadjacks show if anyone has been watching that in the past few days.

Does this effect any sponsors to starcraft 2 teams that are poker sites? Like ROOTgaming is a NA team, but the U.S isn't allowed to play online poker on Pokerstars anymore, so does root still have that sponsor?

Apparently DOJ said they haven't inhibited customer accounts at all and the poker websites have had the ability this whole time to cash people out.

Full Tilt's Gaming License suspended. The client is unreachable atm so you cannot obviously go to play or withdraw any money.

The Alderney Gambling Control Commission (AGCC) has suspended Full Tilt’s licences, requiring the poker room to suspend all operations from the jurisdiction with immediate effect.

The AGCC said in a statement this morning: “The decision to suspend these licenses follows a special investigation prompted by the indictments unsealed by US Attorney General’s Office in the Southern District of New York on 15th April 2011, during which grounds were found to indicate that these licensees and their business associates were operating contrary to Alderney legislation."

More on this as we get it.

Sigh. The article says that the trial will happen on the 27th of July :| So won't be able to touch my funds until then and even then it's not guaranteed to be given back.
