    Default BLOG - Full Tilt Down but Not Out

    hi all

    just an update and thoughts on Full Tilt shutdown ...

    Blog - Full Tilt Down but Not Out ?

    please bear in mind my internet is down at the moment - so updates on this story are likely to happen quicker than I can keep up with them ;-)

    currently I am posting from a net cafe so updates might be a bit patchy over the weekend

    Default read the blog - thats what its there for

    hi Dan

    come on - read the blog (linked above) thats what its there for

    that story is linked to in the blog too ...

    all the info on the rumour link you posted and more ... Full Tilt Down But Not Out | 4kingpoker.com

    dont want to give away my gut feeling but I think FT IS sold but not to party / bwin ... and I think Jack Binion while not the whole deal is part of the deal

    read more in the blog here

    cheers SB

    OIC there are 2 different threads on this it was the other thread about full tilt you were talking about your internet going in and out

    Default sorry for the confusion

    hi Dan et al

    sorry for the confusion - alot to try and get on top of yesterday -

    have a tempory connection (router box thing seems to be briefly working but there is definately something they need to fix)

    anyway sorry Dan I didnt mean for it to look like In was jumping on you
    everyone had information overload

    and I am particularly mindful that I had gone out on a limb for a while saying FT would pay while alot of others had gone way over the other way before yesterdays news of a buyer

    it also has to be said that there are still alot of things up in the air

    there are lot of rumours guessing the buyer - some IMHO are a bit rediculous and others I think have a bit of an agenda

    I still dont think its the party / bwin offer that was taken off the table when the AGCC shut FT down ...

    one of the usually vocal and reliable sources recently announced they were joining Party - and isnt commenting along the lines of Party Bwin have it -quite the contray so I think that deal didnt go through

    my money is still on a leftfield Euro group possibly including some tie in with Jack Binion either as consultant gaining shares or part funding - that would be both a perfect combination IMHO

    thats my best bet anyway

    Paddy Power - I dont think so - just a marketing ploy (fair play)

    cheers SB
