And from here full tilt poker Claims

GCG has been informed that the Department of Justice Asset Forfeiture and Money Laundering Section has approved the first round of payments. This distribution will include approximately 30,000 Petitions totaling $82 million submitted by Petitioners with timely, complete Petitions, who confirmed their FTP Account Balances. GCG is currently working with the bank selected by the DOJ to set up the payment process. GCG expects to issue payments via ACH before the end of February 2014 and will post further updates on the payment process in 2-3 weeks.

Good new for hundreds of American players - all the best to those that file their petition.

so close!!

I can not wait until I get my money back. Unfortunately, I have a lot of bills to pay, but still going to have fun with some of it.

Interesting line item in my bank ledger...

entitled "DOJ poker stars POKERPAY01" :dontknow:
...but for $0

...wondering if that's a "getting ready to refund" my FT $$$?

Anyone else have anything like this? If so, $0 or an actual amount?

This is awesome. So there is merit to what we are being told. I read what others have posted ITT a couple days ago, nice to hear they seem to be actually moving quickly. I am in the "uncontested claims" group and hope to be having my long awaited funds hitting my account soon! Since I live in a really small town, and use a very small bank, I'm sure I won't get a test payment. But it's nice to hear someone got one, it's definitely a good sign.

Great news

Got confirmation email -- Money will be processed within 7 business days!

It sure is great news to hear that US players will finally be receiving their money from DoJ (via Fulltilt).
I still really miss the old days on Fulltilt, when we could all play together on there. I miss the way the site's used to be pre BF & have never really gotten into playin' that much since.

Just in time to make reservations at the wsop!


Oops.. I guess I shoulda had more than $3.46 in my Full Tilt Account.
Seriously, this is awesome news. Now maybe the efforts can turn to legalizing online poker across the board instead of a few states.

Wh00T! In my online bank ledger today!
