Stars buys out Full Tilt.....Players will be paid!!

ProPokerPlayer · Jul 31, 2012

Stars has signed an agreement to pay the DOJ a half Billion Dollars for Full Tilt....Which the DOJ will keep most for bribing other politicians but will let 350 milly or so go towards paying players...

With the money left over the DOJ should be able to run another another 3000 or so guns into other countries and blame it on the Tea Party as well as re-open Solyndra for 10 days

I think regulated legal poker is on the way to the USA
Unfortunate for us though, Louisiana will probably not be one of those states.

Yea it opens in Nevada before the end of the year and California after that.. Your right about Louisiana though....Never happen with Big Bad Bobby in office.

How you think it works? People in NV can play people in CA or you can only play people in your state?

Only inside the state right now. From what ive read Cali and Nev are the ones pushing hard for the Feds to make it all legal so they can combine as soon as possible. Ive read Nevada could be running in the next 60 days..

This is definitely a big stride in the whole world accepting online poker potentially soon. I am also glad I will get my money back from fulltilt.. still hope those scam artists who ran the site go down for stealing the money and running a ponzi scheme.. notice how pokerstars had tons to pay players with even after usa took their funds.. and now they have enough to buyout tilts ass too.. goes to show ya how much of a ponzi deal tilt was running for a while there.. was basically money laundering outlet.
