    <pre>Dear Bugsy Club Player,

    Firstly, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your

    Best Poker Games in Town' and that 'We will take care of you personally'.
    We are proud to say that these are goals we feel we have consistently

    Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control with regards to

    longer viable for the Bugsy's Club Poker Room to continue our business
    operations. However, we are delighted to inform you that Bugsy's Club have
    reached an agreement with the world's largest online poker site,
    pokerstars.com, to allow all Bugsy's Club players with real money balances
    to transfer their account balance over to the PokerStars site and for those
    that do not have a balance to establish an account and be eligible for an
    exciting promotion on PokerStars. In the next couple of days, you will be
    contacted by PokerStars with an exciting offer addressed at you, our play
    money Bugsy's Club players.

    Once again, we would like to thank you for supporting the Bugsy's Club
    Poker Room, but we are confident that PokerStars will provide you with an
    exceptional level of service so you can continue to enjoy playing poker.

    PokerStars are a highly reputable poker site that is fully equipped to meet

    hands.

    I, in fact, earn money at Bugsys Club through their free rolls at their play money portion that was call "Poker Pages" at the time. Once I earned all my deposit bonuses I stop playing there. At else I will have the memories.

    I got the email saying they were closing so I log in to Bugsy's to check my account since I haven't played in over a year. Surprise surprise. There is nothing there. I look at the account history and there is a "Player Funds Transfer (Inactive Transfer to Bugsy)" charge that clears my account. I was never notified.

    Any ideas on how to get my money back?

    I had an old account at BC but got locked out when they banned Kentucky players. I have less than twenty bucks sitting there but can't access it because of IP blocking. Anyone have an email address for the site? Thanks in advance RGC2005
