Still nothing. No news no updates. I tried logging in (thought to give it a go lol) but of course it didnt work. And the have the same old not in their site about system update. It would have taken less time to update a defence system lol. Why dont they put up the real reason?
yestrday was hearing at court. But everything is delayed until 15 septembar. The hearing start in 10:00 AM and finished aboute 05:00 PM. But nothing esppecialy didnt happen, just one more delay... All of ass waiting, and waiting and waiting. Seems that we can only do that, to wait and hopping..

Of course, yesterday when i got home i opened the poker blogs and forums to see what was the conclusion and what happend but for me personally if was very dissapointing....
Basically nothing happend and everything was delayed to 15 september which really sucks, i mean i can no longer play on full tilt poker this summer
Worst i can't recover the money i had on the full tilt poker account either, thanks god i was inspired enough to withdraw more than 70% of the br after black friday
Hope you were joking ...
