Is Your Money Safe at PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker Since the FBI Siezed Them?

In light of what has just happened a few people have emailed asking if their bankrolls are safe on pokerstars.com and fulltiltpoker.com. While it looks as though non US players can carry on as normal who knows what the coming days will bring.

Personally I have cashed out from stars along with Millions of others, not because I think the company itself can’t stand the heat, but because it was a substantial amount that I can’t afford to lose should the worst case scenario happen.

Banking at the 2 above sites is working as normal so don’t be alarmed.
