I just reinstalled Full Tilt Poker since it came back up, even though I know US players can't play real money games on there anymore, but figured I would just have it on my comp, just in case we will again some day. And the $150 I had there is all gone. There's nothing on my account but 572.80 FTP points, and 1 Weekly Freeroll Ticket that I won a long time ago.
US player FTP $$s are now in the hands of the US government. Supposedly they are working on the remission process you will have to go through to get your $$s. You will NOT get your $$s directly from FTP.I didn't even realize I could open the FTP client. After reading this thread, I tried, and sure enough - it opened. Like Mortis, my balance shows as $0.00, but my Full Tilt Points are there. I recall that before they shut the site down entirely, they converted by tournament tickets to cash. I took a screen shot of my balance some time after Black Friday so I would have some evidence of my balance.
The other thing I noticed is there is a logo at the bottom of the cashier page saying "Your funds are safe with Rational Group".
I hope so.
Just opened a game (that I couldn't play) and saw a player that I had notes on - notes were still there.
I'm waxing nostalgic....

As for the OP, I have no idea about Iron Duke but I do know that their funds were not seized by the US govt.

Check the pop out cashier in the poker client.
