Somewhere, BJ Nemeth beams with pride.

Out of curiosity, why Stars? My understanding is that they had cashed out their customers. Or are there a good number of customers still awaiting their money?

PokerStars has paid back everyone who has requested a payout (as far as I know, there could be an oddball dispute out there.) Basically, it is Tilt, who no one thought was going to be a problem, and UB, which everyone knew was going to be a problem, that has not released their funds to US players.

Good idea.

I too, will not be playing the WSOP until every U.S. custmomer is paid.

However, if any Full Tilt higher ups are reading this, my protest can go away if one special customer gets paid.

That's real nice, Troy. But Stars paid, as we knew they would.

And as much as I appreciate it, FT will never pay. I'd boycott them because they are slime and always have been, they just had a much better smokescreen. And for personal protection when they go belly-up in August and take your money, too.

Tell your friends to get their money off.

But get yours first while you can.
