I know quite a few people played in the last full tilt poker comp. If anyone else fancies a game I've organised one at 8pm tonight with a $5.50 buy in.

18 players minimum needed.

I was under the impression Full Tilt Poker was shut down by the FBI?

Edit: Nevermind, looks like it was just the American site that was shut down. Interesting goings on there regardless.

I was under the same opinion (there was a huge uprising in the tech community that US government took over fulltiltpoker.com without any kind of authority to do so), but if the client still works, I'll be there.

I've no interest in playing poker online, but this article is interesting

good boys to get licences?

Looks like some companies rather jumped the gun.

I know the focus from the tech community seems to be on the fact the domain registrars handed the DNS over to the US gov (something that the US gov should have any more right to than say the botswana's government) but I've been trying to get my head around the legalities. I seems (based on possibly too little research) then even though Full Tilt operated out of Ireland and was registered in Alderney (away from the odd US laws concerning the state to state transfer of money for gambling purposes) they were technically owned by America, therefore the US gov is claiming jurisdiction.

I'd love to pester Eion (our contact at Full Tilt) for his views, but I imagine he currently has much much bigger things on his mind.

I just registered.

Said I'm the only person to do so far?

[BPF]

Am I in the right room?

Still only showing one entrant!

[Ricky]

I'm in now as well.

Need 18 so still some way to go.

It's me playing this time. The Hustler is sorting the little one out for bed tonight.

[BPF]

Ten minutes to get 16 in.

Come on guys, get on with it. $5.50!

Ricky, can you open it up to the public if you don't get enough interest here?

[Ricky]

not sure if I can. I'll try now.

[Majiball]

If .com got seized and it all moved to .net do I need a new account?

[Majiball]

When I search for the tourney using the ID it says there isn't one under that number???

[BPF]

It has just been voided. Shall I set up a private room just for us six?

....it won't let me do it...

[Glenn]

.... and it auto-cancelled due to lack of intrest

Ricky, give me some notice of the next one and I'll try and publicize it some more.
