I think they both should get a pass and keep their money. they are victims and i wouldnt judge them if they chose to keep their money if they didnt state in public they would donate one million. Yea, obviously both are gonna pay up. It's just awful for dwan because he's been misinformed one too many times by people in FT. Eitherway, bad PR on his part to gamble 1MIL+ in return of positive public view. I just hope this somehow turns around. Got 400k locked in FTP and this would bankrupt my life.

jesus.

more rumors going around that jack binion is now investing in ftp. for andrews sake i hope these substantiate

I don't know about international players, but anyone who thinks US players are ever gonna see their money again is severely delusional.

Well if those rumours are true then they have to pay the American players as well, there is no way ftp can recover without paying everyone their full balance.

He also stated he will be paying back everything FTP paid him, which can amount to a lot of money and run into the millions(very unrealistic). I would take you up on that bet but it's pretty hard to keep checking on what kind of timetable we are talking about, and I can't really bet for a ton of money. I also do not want to wish that FTP does not pay so the bet that I can afford won't be worth seeing a lot of people I know suffer if I win the bet. When I first heard about the 1M I felt Dwan would pull through, but after reading about the extra money thing, plus the logistical hurdles of to who the fuck he'll be giving/distributing the money to is close to impossible. Not in any way saying Dwan is an asshole or anything, I think that he really stood up for the players online, its just that it is very unrealistic for him to follow through this time, he may have been mislead, misinformed or just as naive as us with regards to the situation. Again Dwan won't pay because he doesnt want to, its just going to be too damn hard to do so. Between his and Ivey's actions since Black Friday, I definitely find his statements to be more pro active, sincere and helpful to the players affected. 2 paragraphs to dodge? you cant say "pretty sure of X" then not bet on it, because you are not sure then. He didnt said extra money, his tweet basically implied that the 1M was pretty much FTPs endorsement so far, and working on a timeframe is quite easy. what kind of timeframe are we talking about here and for how much? im not dodging ffs, ive clearly said why im not comfortable in making money out of my "confidence" in something. i dont instabet on stuff just because i feel confident that x will happen, especially when other people i know are affected, but if you insist as long as i can afford the bet and its not a very long timetable ill take u up on that bet.

time frames have to be big, at least 2 years from now or 1 year if FTP declares bankrupcy, if Dwan pays before that you obviously ship before, lay odds.

Why is he laying odds if you are both super confident it will happen? In fact you sound more sure than him so shouldn't you be giving him odds? Have I missed something here? Will I end this sentence in another question mark?

really? when did i state i was "pretty sure" of it?

Is this why I can't connect to FTP. Is it still down? (Been out of the scene, just was going to have some fun)

yeah ftp is down
fuckers took our money

Shit..

the hearing is most likely going on soon, my guess is that this is a pre-requirement when they enter court and shit
