Neteller says you might not be as fucked as we thought

So apparently Neteller is working out a deal with the US Dept. of Justice to release the players’ funds that were seized earlier this year. This is certainly after a pile of accountants have gone over all Neteller’s records with a fine-toothed comb, and also won’t happen in a hurry.

Neteller says that at some point by the end of May a plan should be in place for folks to get their money back. Not that they’ll have their money by then, but that a plan will be in place by then. So continue in the not holding of your breath on the return of your mobney.

And then Neteller announces that regardless of the fact that Canada’s government has not come after them for anything, they’re stopping service to Canadians as well. I guess the fact that the word “America” is on the continent that Canada’s part of is enough for the newly minted chickens at Neteller.

Just checking in…yup, still fucked.

LA Poker Classic - Check it out

Hey - Pauly is over at PokerNews once again providing the world’s finest poker tournament coverage, so I thought I’d give you a little taste of what you’re missing if you’re not reading Tao of Poker or PokerNews.

After five grueling days of poker at the Commerce Casino, six players remain in the hunt for $2.4 million at the L.A. Poker Classic. JC Tran lost a tremendous margin in chips, yet managed to end Day 5 as the chipleader for the second day in a row with $3.47M. 2006 World Series of Poker runner-up Paul Wasicka ($3.39M) closed the gap along with local Jacobo Fernandez ($3.37M). They both only trail Tran by a few thousand. David Bach, Eric Hershler, and Chau Giang also advanced to the final TV table.

18 players began Day 5 with five short-stacked players and JC Tran as the chipleader. He had 2.5 times more chips than Jacobo Fernandez in second place and amassed 21% of the total chips in play. Everyone

in the ballroom wondered if Tran could make the final table at the L.A. Poker classic in consecutive years. He also bubbled off the final TV table in 2004.

Good shit, right? So go over to PokerNews and read the rest.
