Response: Tiltware vs Ivey's statement

 Tiltware's response to Phil Ivey's statement:

 “Contrary to his sanctimonious public statements, Phil Ivey’s meritless lawsuit is about helping just one player – himself. In an effort to further enrich himself at the expense of others, Mr. Ivey appears to have timed his lawsuit to thwart pending deals with several parties that would put money back in players’ pockets. In fact, Mr. Ivey has been invited -- and has declined -- to take actions that could assist the company in these efforts, including paying back a large sum of money he owes the site. Tiltware doubts Mr. Ivey’s frivolous and self-serving lawsuit will ever get to court. But if it does, the company looks forward to presenting facts demonstrating that Mr. Ivey is putting his own narrow financial interests ahead of the players he professes to help.” 


Wow. That's all I have to say. Tiltware takes it's sweet time on disclosing information about players getting their funds back, and other important matters that took place on Black Friday, but they insta-fire back on Phil Ivey's statement. Ivey's intentions are obviously not ALL noble, as he has many millions of dollars locked online as well, but this could be a huge step for many FullTilt players to be getting their money back in their pockets.

/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.
