  1. I've been getting PMs for a few weeks now and I figured I'd just go ahead and make a thread to let everyone know whats going on with the competitions. Obviously the USA players are at a great disadvantage with the major sites being shutdown so the contests have been cancelled.

    On April 15th I had $9340 that was being held for P5s competitions, $4300 for the yearly and $5040 for the monthly. Unfortunately, I had the majority of my money of FTP after doing a few FTOPS swaps with people and currently have ~$13k held up on FTP. I had ~$5k on PS which i cashed out and gave my backers first dibs on returned money. The total amount of backer money I had in my accounts was greater than the amount cashed out so some of their funds are still frozen as well. Assuming FTP pays out its players, there are a few ways that I can refund people their money: transferring money on FTP (long shot), PayPal, Moneybookers, personal check, cash in Las Vegas or the Chicago area after i return home from Las Vegas mid-July.

    The major point of this is that I'm not going to be issuing refunds until FTP allows cashouts and the money is in my bank account or available to be transferred via FTP, Paypal etc.

    Here is a screenshot of my accounts on April 20th just to let people know everything is on the up and up:

  4. sounds great, I don't think anyone expects any money before FTP pays out. Hopefully FTP pays before the WSOP is over to make payments to everyone as easy as possible, at least for those in vegas.
     
  5. Thank you. I was just curious about the situation. I hope both sites make good on everyone's money. gl in Vegas.
     
  6. Swish you on point. Respekt. Hopefully this goes down while in Vegas and we can freeroll the $100 on black.

    Im not sure why everyone didn't just transfer there money to a euro friend when shit hit the fan. Guess I'm good under pressure like a diamond
  7. Heh once ftp funds become available maybe I can meet up w/u in chi since it's about a 3 hr drive.
     
  8. appreciate swish, i'm down to freeroll on black murkle. hook/blow parlay
