I have no idea how these sites work^^ When the government shut down Full Tilt, everyone who had money in those accounts had them frozen. Some people have had thousands of dollars stuck in these accounts for over a year now. This is the first time I'm aware of that someone was able to log into an old Full Tilt account. | ||

PokerStars, et al., 11 Civ. 2564 (2011),[2] includes Full Tilt and Cereus as defendants and seeks the forfeiture of approximately $3 billion in assets belonging to the companies. http://www.pokernews.com/news/2012/04/groupe-bernard-tapie-ends-negotiations-with-doj-pokerstars-12516.htm In addition to that shocking news, rumors began swirling Tuesday that PokerStars had swooped in and purchased Full Tilt Poker's assets for $750 million from the DOJ. Following initial rumors started in a TwoPlusTwo thread, ChiliGaming CEO Alex Dreyfus posted via Twitter that $330 million will go toward the repayment of players, while the rest will settle the outstanding charges against PokerStars. | ||

I have no idea how these sites work^^ Full Tilt Poker went under a huge investigation etc and all the accounts were locked on it. Anyone with an account lost the ability to log in or withdraw their money. So this guy might have found a way to get his money that was otherwise just lost... | ||

I just tried logging in with my e-mail address and password for FTP, and for some reason got logged in, but there is no information after that. | ||

Basically Onlinepoker is actually illegal in the US and over a year ago on a friday ( thats why it's called "Black Friday") DOJ decided to investigate them. Turns out that they were giving players money to play which they don't have but pokerstars got off the hook while fulltilt was revealed to be a bunch of scam scumbags. (Many famous live poker pros among them) Gratz to the people who can finally withdraw their money from tilt. | ||

Did you check your balance under cashier? | ||

I want to clarify that I haven't received the money yet, just that I was able to access the account and the withdrawal options. Congratulations are a little early but at least people can see their accounts and that the balance is still there, and maybe have hope for some reason the withdrawal will go through. I was also considering transferring the funds to a legit carbon account that has withdrawn before. I'll give that a try next and see what happens. | ||
