Press Release: Phil Ivey on Black Friday

/BEASTMODE
"For many years, I have been proud to call myself a poker player. This great sport has taken me to places I only imagined going and I have been blessed with much success. It is therefore with deep regret that I believe I am compelled to release the following statement."

The least outspoken 'big-player' finally making a statement about FullTilt not releasing the funds of the U.S. players. Taking a stand for all the U.S. players. Phil Ivey, we salute you.

    Very respectable of him. Both Phils are my favorite, the other being Helmuth. ;)

    Good. I'm glad he's standing up for the little guy. I used to play on fulltilt, but quit once this happened. I only had a few pennies in my account, so I didn't really care. I'm shocked though, that people with real funds still haven't gotten their money. that's incredible.
