Quote: FCP Statement, Friday October 13th, 2006
The Ongame Network, owned by bwin, has announced that it will block service to players with U.S. addresses. Full Contact Poker, however, is committed to providing its poker services to all of its existing players and to any new customers in the U.S. or around the world.
As a result of Ongame’s announcement, Full Contact Poker is partnering with a new poker network provider that shares its desire of offering poker software to legally aged players in the U.S. In the unlikely event that your service is interrupted during this transition time, contact our 24/7 player support team. We promise to keep our players informed of any new developments and appreciate your continued support.
Hmmm, I wonder what network....Tribeca, Absolute?
Tribecca is the hot rumor, but DN's comments say that they're considering multiple offers from different networks.
It's worth noting that Tribecca will be a top five network once they absorb Tain, so they'd be the obvious choice. Microgaming is the only other decent-sized network that hasn't banned all Americans, and they've banned people from the usual states. Absolute is just plain tiny, with 737 players right now, according to pokersitescout.com. Now that I think about it, I suppose Tribecca will pick up a number of sites that want to dump their current networks and have nowhere else to go in the coming weeks.
Edit: I forgot about Excapsa, but after the PokerShare thing, I just don't think UB wants any competition for the U.S. market on their network.
