Party Poker needs to show its shareholders that it can (worst case) survive without U.S. customers. 270 days of decreased profits is better than 270 days of life expectancy. I’d like to know how many players (best case) will not return; 270 days is a long time. I know I won’t go back. Only because I discovered the Party pull out when I tried to withdraw/transfer. They should have announced a pending suspension (i.e. Midnight 10/02), not having done so already. That was a dirty tactic IMO.
