On Black Friday in 2011, the online poker community was shocked as the FBI seized the Full Tilt Poker domain, impacting players like @Kevmath, @RealKidPoker, @ChancesCards, @GmanPoker, @FlyFlatAlex, @msalsberg, and @bonespoker. Some players lost significant amounts of money, while others managed to recover funds years later.
13 years ago, I’d just had 2 of the best months of my career and was taking shots at 25/50 hu. I felt like my career was finally taking off. I probably had 80%+ of my net worth on ftp and AP and it felt like the whole world came crashing down on that day.
My Black Friday Story - heard Stars and FTP getting shut down by DOJ regarding 3rd party payment processors, had no money on either site, immediately loaded 1k onto FTP. Oops. #Dipshit
Believe it or not I was #1 for card player online POY on Black Friday My lead was so big I still got like 13th without playing another hand that year
