Full Tilt only have themselves to blame for this. 

They have handled this whole situation very badly and we may have likely witnessed the quickest demise of a cash cow ever seen!

Are they licensed (with servers) in other jurisdictions apart from Alderney?

gg FTP WSOP Main packages (or the winners of those)? 

They were previously licensed in Kahnawake, although are no longer listed on the Kahnwake site as a permit holder. They still have servers there though.

would you go and play with them again if they dusted off the servers in Kahnwake, or would you just log on and request a cashout?

Odd, server has IP of 91.211.98.20 which has reverse dns of:
98-20.colo.sta.blacknight.ie

which sounds like a collocated server with these guys:

http://www.blacknight.com/

A tracert of the IP goes via London and then to Canada before failing at a server belonging to mohawk.ca - aka the Kahnawake Data Centre

yeah I wondered about this, no doubt FTP would rather look after those players who can still play legally but this could really fuck this up for that

Withdraw surely? Inaction would be the same as keeping your shares in Lehman brothers after Lehmanns collapsed but you could still flog them for a 24 hour period afterwards.

he Alderney Gambling Control Commission (AGCC) has issued a further statement in light of its decision to suspend the licence of Full Tilt Poker.
Andre Wilsenach, the Executive Director of the AGCC revealed, ‘The decision to suspend the eGambling licence was in the public interest and, because of the seriousness and urgency of the matter, it required that immediate action be taken ahead of the regulatory hearing.’


The AGCC also confirmed that a hearing has been set for Tuesday 26 July in London and until then, or until the Suspension Notices are cancelled, Full Tilt must cease to register new customers; accept deposits from existing customers; allow existing customers to withdraw funds that are held in their accounts; and permit customers to participate in any form of poker game play or gambling transaction.

Snap withdraw if you can, the client isn't back up though and probably won't be any time soon.
