For all you poker playing NSC'ers on Full Tilt....

[saafend_seagull]

Site has been ceased.

Not looking good...

Pokerstars offer "homegames" but this site could have the same damage.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Why, what's ocurring?

 

[Titanic]

What's happened to all my $$'s then ??

 

[BlueSeagull]

Yeah It went down in the middle of a cash game I was playing earlier, initially I thought the site was down, but it has been shut down by U.S courts until a court hearing on July 26th. It's all a knock on from the U.S ban on online gaming in April. We should all get our money back, but will probably have to wait a long time for it :-( I wish I knew this before putting $50 on 3 days ago, then doubling it this morning before this happened!

Glad I have my money in Pokerstars at the moment rather than Full Tilt then!

Pokerstars is far from safe either mate, they were shut down in U.S at the same time, I'd look at the U.S news closely if I were you. I'm sticking to U.K based sites from now on. I'm now gonna play on the site affiliated with my Hastings Poker club, Big Slick. You can cash out in the club too, and they got links with another couple of south east poker clubs.

Looks like the shits hit the fan here then , anybody got any suggestions for another site so we can continue our sunday night gig ?

What's happened to all my $$'s then ??

Absolutely! I didn't have a fortune in there, but as they matched by initial deposit I put £50 in, and had only played 1 NSC tournament so far. Not happy.

 

[pauli cee]

cheers for that!
as above, any recommendations for a 'safer' site, would be appreciatted....

 

[Horsham Gull]

We apologise but the system is currently down. Please check back later.

I've always played on Betfair until I joined in my first NSC Sunday game, and have never had any problems.
