| Yes well done to Full Tilt ( for now ) I hope you had the foresight to wine and dine these guys so as to let all our CC games go ahead there before the stampede from other Forums etc overwhelm them. At least these guys are holding firm, hats off. |

| This is great. I've never played there, but I'll happily give my business to them. Their stance is exactly why I will play at sites like them and will NEVER (or never again) play at any site that has currently turned their back on US players. Hey, anyone know where I could find a link to a bonus code for Full Tilt? |

| Problem for me: Full Tilt is just about the only poker site that, for some reason, makes you certify that you are 21 years of age in order to register... all the other poker sites say 18 : ( What's that all about anyway? (I'm 19). |

| Dear Qhr1s0, Full Tilt Poker is here to stay! As an online poker player, you have probably heard about the new legislation passed by the U.S. Congress earlier this week that attempts to prevent you from being able to transfer money to online gaming sites. While this new law has prompted some sites to announce plans to abandon the U.S. market in coming days, we assure you that Full Tilt Poker will continue to provide all of its players - both inside and outside of the United States - with a full complement of real money ring games and tournaments for their enjoyment. After consultation with numerous legal experts in this field, we want to make you aware of the following: * Legal The new U.S. legislation does not in any way attempt to criminalize the act of you playing online poker. By playing online at Full Tilt Poker, you are not breaking any U.S. Federal laws. * Full Access The passage of the new Internet Gaming law will not have any impact on your day-to-day experience at Full Tilt Poker. We will provide all of our players, everywhere in the world, with full access to all of our games and tournaments. * Easy Deposits and Withdrawals We will continue to provide our players with all of the safe, secure and convenient methods for transferring money to and from the site. In fact, in recent discussions with our payment processors, we have been assured that this new law will have no immediate impact on their day-to-day business. And as always, any monies that you have on deposit with Full Tilt Poker remain completely safe and secure. Furthermore, we firmly believe that online poker is not encompassed by this new legislation. In any event, we will continue to lobby for an express carve-out for online poker and for your right to play a truly American game from the privacy of your own home and computer. We are excited about the future here at Full Tilt Poker and in the coming weeks and months, we plan to roll out many new features designed to enhance your online poker experience. We appreciate your loyalty to our site and, in turn, want you to know that we will remain loyal to our valued players in the United States and throughout the world. We look forward to seeing you at the table. Sincerely, Full Tilt Poker |

| re: Fulltilt poker releases official statement Well, i got my notice from Titan. It is official, they closed my real money account. All I can do is get funds out. My balance on Titan is now zero and I've uninstalled their software as of this morning. Here is what I received... Due to the recent passing of the Unlawful Gambling Enforcement Act by the United States Senate on September 30, 2006, and its imminent enactment as federal law, we will no longer allow real money gaming activities from United States residents. We regret to inform you that, consequently, we are closing your gaming account at Titan Poker. Your balance is available to you. You may access your account and request the withdrawal of such balance, subject to any conditions that might apply, including bonuses received. We appreciate your patronage, and apologize for any inconvenience caused. We hope to be able to offer to you our services again in the future. Robin Steele Manager Titan Poker "Become a Legend at Titan Poker" And here is the reply I sent them to vent on their crap... TO:Robin Steele Manager Titan Poker You have the nerve to write "We hope to be able to offer to you our services again in the future. "???? **** you. You close my account in some chicken shit preemptive move, turn your back on ALL American players, and then hope to do business with me again. LOL Not only will your site NEVER see my business again, but I will make sure to let everyone I know in any EVERY community that I frequent (including and especially internet forums) how shitty Titan is being in all of this with the hopes of convincing ALL U.S players to never do business with you again. P.S. Don't bother replying to this with your horseshit explanation (as if you'd actually even take the time). I've added you to my junk mail sender list, blocked your e-mail, and reported you to my ISP as an unwanted Spammer. |
