UPDATED: New  "Answers" Thread From Full Tilt Poker UPDATED: New  "Answers" Thread From Full Tilt Poker

UPDATED April 6, 2011 11:06 AM

Full Tilt Poker has updated their Important Information for US Players page. They have announced that they will update U.S. players on information regarding the withdraw of their balances on or before Sunday May 15th.

As promised, FTP provided answers to some questions in a thread on twoplustwo.com, but questions that players are most interested in have gone unanswered once again. No answers were provided concerning when U.S. Players will be able to cashout.

FTPDoug did address some questions not relating to when players would be paid. Most of the information provided dealt with turning items into cash, Iron Man tickets/medals and Full Tilt Points, though no information was provided on if FTPs will be converted into cash.

According to the post, the following items will be credited and/or converted into cash:

  • Tournament and cash game tickets
  • Tournament dollars
  • Unpaid Take 2 payments
  • Unpaid rake/cash back payments
  • FTOPS Satellite Challenge winnings
  • Store purchases made after April 15 will be reversed
  • Uncleared portions of purchased bonuses

Other items related to players accessing their funds that went unanswered included Canadians’ ability to withdraw larger sums – currently limited to 2k – and non-U.S. players’ ability to cash out via wire transfers, Moneybookers and Netteller.

Of the three sites indicted on “Black Friday”, PokerStars has already allowed cashouts by U.S. players, Cereus Network has been silent and FTP has yet to announce when U.S. players will be paid.
