Phil Ivey拒绝参加今年的WSOP并且准备起诉FTP

这是Phil Ivey发表的声明：

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.

I am deeply disappointed and embarrassed that Full Tilt players have not been paid money they are owed. I am equally embarrassed that as a result many players cannot compete in tournaments and have suffered economic harm.
I am not playing in the World Series of Poker as I do not believe it is fair that I compete when others cannot. I am doing everything I can to seek a solution to the problem as quickly as possible.

My name and reputation have been dragged through the mud, through the inactivity and indecision of others and on behalf of all poker players I refuse to remain silent any longer. I have electronically filed a lawsuit against Tiltware related to the unsettled player accounts. As I am sure the public can imagine, this was not an easy decision for me.

I sincerely hope this statement will ignite those capable of resolving the problems into immediate action and would like to clarify that until a solution is reached that cements the security of all players, both US and International, I will, as I have for the last six weeks, dedicate the entirety of my time and efforts to finding a solution for those who have been wronged by the painfully slow process of repayment.

上面只剩不到100刀，偶也

我倒觉得Phil Ivey的做法无可厚非。毕竟这件事情给他带来很多负面的影响。

我们权当看戏吧，谁是谁非，日后自有公断。

中国如果出了这种事情 估计没一个poker大佬站出来 敢于抵制比赛

PI主要是为自己，讲得好听，干的和讲的不一样。美国有几个新闻（ESPN， 福布斯）都提到了，他的起诉基本上就是为了和FTP划清界限，好去接别的广告之类。
他这麽做其实是落井下石，断了FTP借钱筹款的后路。
FTP的错误在于他们没把用户的钱和网站及投资及分红的钱分开。PS是分开的。况且FTP分红分得很猛（AGGRESSIVE）。PHIL讲得好听，但他拿的分红最多。DURRRR早就说过，他会把他的分红退回来帮着付款。IVEY讲的好听，干的相反。

这文写的很妙啊，牌手只做正EV的事情，不知道IV是想拉拢人心另起炉灶呢还是想和ftp划清界限避免法律纠纷 ...

    我认为答案是：所有这些以及其他更多

如果我是ftp这钱就一分也不给美国鬼子。美国政府就是tmd强盗！

    美国政府跟美国鬼子是两码事，而且在这件事情里面完全是对立的。美国鬼子天天干的事情，就是骂美国政府。在骂美国政府这件事情上，中国人跟美国人是一致的，呵呵

支持phil Ivey，这一申明做得漂亮。

FTP很动荡啊
