    I think it is a scam. One day I entered like 147 times and didn't win shit. I never even got an email back from FTP when I asked for a list of the winners.

    gg $1470 :(

    I seen this one as well, you gotta wonder how they get it to come from "Dealer", and in the different colour as well. Full Tilt software has been pwned!

    No, full tilt software is fine.

    All he does is put a bunch of "===========" before he types "DEALER: " That way his actual name is far away from the fake "Dealer." I can't believe I need to explain this. Notice:

    lol, this person is serious, or this is really good sarcasm disguised as complete noob statements. I still think they were serious:
