full tilt/pokerstars taken down by feds

[hi_im_god]

i'm not home to check on my account but according to the news the d.o.j. siezed the domain names and anyone trying to log on is greeted by a notice from the f.b.i. about the illegality of internet gambling.

that's huge for anyone that played online. these are the two biggest sites for u.s. players. i'll lose just over $1000 assuming there's no access to full tilt anymore but i know people that'll be out tens of thousands. it's a sad day and a tough hit on a lot of bankroll's.

i hate to think of having to drive to a brick and mortar for a game now.
