Message: [QUOTE="RamdeeBen, post: 1750982, member: 71146"] I didn't hear about that no. What has that got to do with Juanda with whats happened to FT? It's like every single pro would be hunted now, how ridiculous does it sound and how idiotic these people who are "waiting" for these people are. Just read about James Bord, what an idiot he is though, I mean what difference does Juanda have and him calling him personally a "thieving *****" is just lol. He obviously just wanted to be in the lime light, get a little bit of fame for his "out burst" It makes absolute NO sense for him doing this to him. I'm still not sure why Phil Ivey would be worried about the DOJ, at the end of the day he is just a normal player like the rest of us, of course as the number one figure head in poker. This shouldn't give them a reason to look into him just because he had big shares in FT, he's clearly disappointed by FT actions as when you see the DOJ have let them now pay out U.S players, they haven't actually done so. All the majority of monies is invested elsewhere as far as I'm aware so that's why they can't release the funds, I'm sure this applies to Phil Ivey,Tom Dwan, Patrick Antionus etc who most likely have the biggest amounts of money on there. I'm still unsure of the 100% rakeback selling to people for dollars, never heard of that? Again though, what reasons would that have to investigate Phil Ivey? I mean for one, like he really cares about rakeback in all honestly and accounts. I'm quite sure he didn't have any sort of input/control over that stuff. He was merely a big figure head for FT with a big stake in FTP so of course he is going to be angry at how it's all been portrayed and how it makes him look. He's the most respected player in the game and nearly everyone looks up to him, including other big name pros. For him to be labelled as one of the main leaders of FTP and now all this crap has happened it puts him in a very bad light indeed. I for one, don't blame him for his statement, he needs to be clear to all other players that he has no involvement in the background of what goes on at FTP. It could quite easily come across with him saying nothing that he's hiding something, him distancing himself from them now in my eyes shows he's disgusted with who's/was associated with and how they have treated the American players recently.
