We've had a lot of enquiries and there's lots of speculation on the forums, so I wanted to address the PokerStars chatter. As you know, PokerStars is in settlement discussions with the U.S. Department of Justice. As such settlement discussions are always confidential, we are unable to comment on rumors. As soon as we have information to share publicly we will do so.

With full, frank, and complete corporate communications like that, it's like they've been running FullTilt for years. |

wow i may as well be french with ideas like that...
guess the problem with that equity of players funds is that they dont actually exist???
pokerstars have to buy that debt but also have to create that fund?
imo if theyre not denying it by now its pretty much fact

Buy the company, use (or bury) the software, competition threat eliminated for the foreseeable future.

I feel like the best chance a "new" or "re-launched" Full Tilt would have of regaining player trust would be with PokerStars behind them.
IDK though been so many twists and turns in this utterly fascinating saga.
Flushy - what you think likelihood of getting your old deal back is with Stars behind this?

This only makes sense if it paves the way for Stars to make a clean reentry to the US market. They could later sell the FT software to a B&M consortium. |
