JDMcNugent7 10-02-06 02:54 AM

how can 1 douchebag change every1's lives so fucking easily?

Aequitas58 10-02-06 02:55 AM

This is unreal.

I guess we will see how Party responds tomorrow (possibly with an alert when you start the program or an email from Support).

BrianSwa 10-02-06 03:02 AM

yep
 
yea this is very very unreal!!! 1 dude takes out the biggest online poker room on the net. Guess I will be forced to play more live if this shit goes on, Lou got any rooms for rent?

imagine if stars follows suit! how shitty.

Tony Cheval 10-02-06 03:03 AM

Yes, because Bush wrote this bill, pushed it through Congress, then unethically (if completely legally as it stands) got it piggybacked onto 'port security' legislation no sane Congresscritter would dare vote against.

Please, as bad as this is, will all you people with NO FUCKING CLUE OF HOW THE US GOVERNMENT WORKS please just stop. :rolleyes:

JDMcNugent7 10-02-06 03:04 AM

stars is done too...

BrianSwa 10-02-06 03:07 AM

wtf
 
stars is pulling out also, wtf is going on. Home of the free my ass!!!!


this is total bs.

Zybomb 10-02-06 03:12 AM

This is absolutely ridiculous. I realize 75% of my play comes Live now... but still, unreal.

JDMcNugent7 10-02-06 03:14 AM

i think in time they will find a way to make it work and regulate it.

MAYHEM45 10-02-06 03:16 AM

TP, whats gonna happen to this site?

BrianSwa 10-02-06 03:18 AM

hey
 
I was thinking this same thing, I mean guess there will be a new live play section. I'am really really concdering a transfer to philli now.

MAYHEM45 10-02-06 03:21 AM

Stolen from 2p2


Aequitas58 10-02-06 03:24 AM

I just processed my withdrawal request from Party. I can only help but think that Party has the foresight to know they are pulling out of the US market, because something like this is agreed upon in advance. That being said, I hope that the recent September reload wasn't a ploy to get people to deposit more money into the site knowing that a majority of the accounts will be frozen??

If in the event that these sites close down sometime this week, what kind of laws or regulations are set up to protect OUR money at their site?

And that's when my money goes back in.

BrianSwa 10-02-06 03:28 AM

well
 

what is stopping them from just saying screw you guys? I mean I dont think the big sites would do this but if you have youre money in a small site you better get it out ASAP seeing as I see them just closing accounts and saying screw you all.

I mean obviously our goverment dont give a shit why should they?

Aequitas58 10-02-06 03:30 AM

That's my point.

BrianSwa 10-02-06 03:49 AM

yea
 

yea know that just want to emphasis it!
