'Following Tribeca's decision to block certain territories, including the US, the entire Tribeca network will cease its operations in six months from the date of the agreement, by which time the migration of the online poker operators to Playtech's platform is planned to be complete.'

So it looks like within six months the Tribeca will essentially not exist and be subsumed into the Playtech network. Which will presumably have BPL implications.

Coming not long after Tribeca acquired Tain, poker networks are becoming like Matryoshka dolls.

Sorry didnt mean it in a negative way...genuinly just trying to help. I have only just found out myself.

It sounds as if they are going to migrate all the skins over to the ipoker network.

Bad move methinks. Although i'm not a fan of tribeca software, but their setup is different to many others. They are removing that and i think they will find many players going elsewhere.

what sites are on ipoker?

Yes, we realise it was not intended in a negative way, & that the Post was entirely innocent.

The problem is that many blondes are unaware that you run your own Cardroom on the Tribeca Network. It is VERY important to me that blonde remains a "free & open" Forum, so you have every right to Post on here as you have always done. But because of "self-interest" it is equaly important that blondes are fully aware that you run a Tribeca Network Cardroom.  Many of the newer blondes may not be aware of that.

We are cool, we just want to ensure that everybody on blonde knows where vested interests sit.

I am aware, from the Website of playtech, of the statement they have made saying they have purchased Tribeca. That's the totality of my knowledge on the subject.

I am entirely relaxed on the subject thus far, & I have yet to see anything which troubles me.

When I know more, I'll Post accordingly. Fire away with questions if you wish, but I don't do "merchant of doom" stuff, change is not always a bad thing.

If the nature of our Cardroom changes in a way we consider negative for our players, & for blonde, we have a whole plethora of options available to us.

Exciting times, eh?
