Default Re: Fulltilt froze my account with 47 grand in it

Hey SillySal,

PoorLawyer did raise a valid point - the Alderney Gambling Control Commission may provide a meaningful remedy, assuming they actually license Full Tilt Poker, or otherwise govern entities based out of Alderney. The law establishing the commission gives it real powers, and the commission itself has pretty broad authority to investigate licensees. See the Alderney EGambling Regulations for more information, particularly sections 333 onwards.

However, I note that FTP has the Kahnawake Gaming Commission license emblem displayed on each page, with no mention of Alderney. As we're seeing with the Absolute Poker cheating scandal, the KGC may be more of a licensing entity on paper than in reality.

Cheers, Carl.
