Daniel Negreanu posted a video blog yesterday in which he talks about Full Tilt Poker and Black Friday, and some other stuff. It's not very often you see Negreanu pissed off, but when it comes to how Howard Lederer, Chris Ferguson and Ray Bitar have handled things after Black Friday, Negreanu doesn't hold back his anger.

He got really mad with them. We are all waiting for developments in the FT case, but we are more interested in knowing when will FT be back online than to know who can be considered guilty for anything around this case. The truth is, to know who should be punished is the most important part for the courts. Negreanu is giving some help or is he just making “noise” to the court?
Pretty harsh things to say though, he probably does not have the whole story. And If I were them, I would probably have done the same thing after black friday.
But still, even if they didn't know, what they did was atleast criminal negligence...

well i'm not so formillior whit FT,and if i have it good,they ow players money or something...but if thats the case,that the players dont get there money paid,then i 'm agree whit Daniel. i play 1x there and that software whit the avatars,is 4 me not the site where i put money in, poker stars client is simple to look and find the good tourney,but by some site's is it so diffilcult,but every person play's where he like's it to play.And Once i saw the big game,there was a player ,will davis he was the loosecannon,he told to daniel that will's wife didn't like daniel,coz he talk to much,now she realy hate him coz Daniel Knockt him out and won the side pot,i think it was 100k,yeah he's a great player,and directly,i like that

That is the way it is! Go Daniel Go, So right! They do owe us (players who have $$ at FT) not just the money, but how about some explanation, some on-going feedback ast o what's the current status of FT. Come on guys (Howard, Chris, Ray) tell us what's up. Are you going to sale out, re-open, credit us. It would have been nice to have received some type of letter or something to show your concern to your players. Hell, our persoanl data is in FT's electronic data base. Spend some time going through it and touch base with each and every one of the players that lost at FT.

yeah put them all in prison- daniel do this yourself, catch them- do some kicking stuff (like van damme) arrest them and escort personally to prison- give the court all the evidence (you probably have plenty of it) and laugh seeing them being sentenced to 5 years of offline prison poker

I would not make any comments what happened on Full Tilt, let the investigation officers do their work first and just wait for those results, that is my opinion.

He lives here in canada now, but I'd totally vote for him as our Premiere.
I think it's about time someone with some actual street cred called them out for their b******t. I totally hope those scumbags get a long jail sentence and end up in a cell with a nice 300 pound cellmate with a craving for "freshmeat". Heads up for tossed salad anyone?
