No, this is still the case. The difference being that player's monies were pooled at FT into accounts that were seized, where as P* monies were not, so they were able to get those funds unfrozen by the DOJ to pay back the players. FT can't do that because when they pooled it into other accounts, it appeared to be 'dirty' and was seized. From what I've been able to get out of all this anyway.

I think what is happening with Ivey is that FT is asking all their pros to help bail them out. Some are up for it, other's like Ivey are not.

Who really knows what is true with the 2 statements.

Does Ivey owe a whole bunch of money to FTP like their statement says? If yes then is Ivey only doing this cause he can't or doesn't want to pay that money back?

Right now it is PR vs PR and if in fact this does go to court, then I guess more details will come out.

from the little i've read, i'm kind of hoping ivey isn't as stupid as this might make him out to be.
