For now we know nothing, so there's nothing to comment at all. But the license is - for now - "just" suspended so I think - and hope - that FTP will be back, because I've my whole bankroll there and I would've to start using FPP on P* to earn some money to play with Or win mob draw/crack the safe xD

Posted by T3ddyKGB: Posted by MIGO14: Does this mean that Fulltilt don't have a license anymore to operate their site ?
bingo
Not exactly - currently they still have a license - but it is suspended. That is not the same as revoked (lost).
Mind you, I am simply going by the other BRM thread - I'm about to investigate further on bigger news sources. But if it that thread is correct, then there license isn't yet lost..
Still, not a great sign.. Personally - from what I have been following of all this - if I had a roll on FTP I would have taken it off long ago, shits been going from bad to worse for FTP ever since BF.
------------------
ofc its just supended and not lost (not yet anyways) but I am not gonna deposit on FT. guess alot more will be scared after all what happened since black friday. those who havent cashed out yet at least will try to. so i think its over (jsut my opinion)

Despite everything we can say about FTP, good or bad, this is very bad for Poker Online. Hope that everything can be explained soon, otherwise we will loose lots of players, and specially new players and fishes

HI all
I think this is the beginning of the end. Unfortunatley, like some of you, I have all my roll in there. I hope that they come back to and at least give us the opportunity of getting our money out.
Suggestion for ADMINISTRATOR. As we are now missing the BRM freerolls at the site, why don't you add the money to the safe or weekly draw. This will give us the chance of getting some of our rolls back from FTP and also to invest it somewhere else?

Did a big mistake that i didnt cash out my money some time ago. I was thinking to play the depositors freeroll first in a couple of days and then cash out. Now.....
If we lose the money in FT dont you think BRM will too?
Personally i think this is the end for FT and all our money will be gone (im still hoping no though ) But if you consider the whole history if they ever come back online who wont request a cash out. It will crash them even more.

Hi Mober. I know how you feel. Crap at mo. I hope you get your money as I do all of you. While you are here - how bad is it in your country? I remember going to Greece many years ago and then someone saying that the Euro would be a bad idea for you. How right they were !! I have just watched the BBC news and seen the riots in your country? Is this all over or just isolated incidents? Good luck with it all anyway and I suggest you move country as well as poker site !!

I lost my, quite impressive, bankroll of 15 $ there during the latest rush-week. It was money I had won with a rush-ticket I got for free after the rush-week before, so it was an even-steven thingie, but since I had made the points for a few days, I almost deposited some more.
