Wtf... is there something screwed up or changed now... from heaven to hell...?
I already answered in your post. They changed their system recently, and withdrawals are now instant. ...or at least they used to be until last night. They have now frozen everything, Try and withdraw now, you will not be able to connect to the Cashier.
If you can, please let me know, I´m trying to save some of my Bankroll.

IslandJack I have money on PS and I tried two times for a cash out, but it was rejected, it seems they have frozen all the accounts of PS and FTP. Hopefully we can receive our money in the future.

hmm is it the same on pstars, i think it will all be fine for euro players and the rest soon, they will be getting crazy amounts of players wanting to cash out so they will be freaking out and there could just be a clog up of the system for the amount of cashouts requested im not worried tbh
thats hard to read but says things should be cool

Island, the way I see things like this work in the U.S. is maybe in a week or two everything will go back to normal. Our U.S. government just wants to make sure they're getting their cut and that's the truth. Thing is FT is not responsible to pay the U.S. government on winnings, it's the individual who won the $$ responsibility to claim this cash and pay the government their 38%. A crock of poop, but pretty sure this is what will be in the end results. Good Luck to All!

good good jack, i didnt think they would be long term probs for outside the US. I mean if the US is cut off forever or long time they need to keep all there other customers happy in times like this, they dont want us all pissing off to other sites

Well... I'd predict that within 1-2 weeks the US Gov. will obtain finally these $3 billions for their Budget and then things will back easy to normal (... at least for non-American players).
This is only going about ...the big green cabbage, as always...

Islandjack, everything is fine for european players, only us players are affected by this current situation. Mosy likely you couldn't make transfers or withdraw money then because they moved the server from fulltiltpoker.com to fulltiltpoker.co.uk, so now full tilt poker is a uk site. As you all know uk allows online gambling, even more in uk gambling profits aren't impositated. After seing all this scary story this afternoon i decided to make a money withdraw myself into my moneybookers account. In couple of minuted i recieved the confirmation and the money were in my moneybookers account. I decided to leave the rest of the money on full tilt although it seems from now on we'll only play between our european friends. I'm sure many high end poker players from us will move to europe now.
