Congratulations To The Rest Of The World!

The deal between the U.S. DOJ, PokerStars and Full Tilt has been finalized and the press releases issued. Rest of the world players will have their funds within 90 days, U.S. players will have to apply to the DOJ. Yeah, that's going to go well. I can't be the only one with exactly zero confidence that checks will be cut by our government any time soon. I don't have any of the associated worries - I've paid my taxes on any winnings for one - but I think end of the year might be optimistic. It sure would have been nice if the DOJ had let Stars handle it, they did such an exceptional job in repaying their own players in short order. Now if only Congress would get some legislation passed...
