Just days after UB and Absolute Poker let go of their signed pros, rumors are flying about Full Tilt Poker possibly dropping their poker pros.<\/p>\n
The rumor started on the popular podcast site QuadJacks.com, where they discussed potential firings after Full Tilt apparently blocked signed pros from appearing on the show. The most infamous event so far is when Mike Matusow was on the show talking about Full Tilt’s situation, and an FT rep called Matusow while the show was happening to get him to quit talking. Matusow stayed on QuadsJacks and switched the topic to sports, only to be called again by Full Tilt and told to get off of the show.<\/p>\n
In the aftermath of the Matusow incident, the QuadJacks hosts appear angry, and have lashed out at the world’s second largest poker site. Here is some of what was said between the show’s hosts from an episode last week:<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t think everything is all right, it is not all right.\u00a0 Nobody from the top of management has let anyone know.\u00a0 Where is the money Full Tilt?\u00a0 At least PokerStars has sent checks.\u00a0 They are paying their shills to say that everything is okay.\u00a0 Everything is NOT okay.\u00a0 They are forbidden to speak.<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cCause for concern?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t think we are going to see our money.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think they have money to pay their players.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cWe will schedule Full Tilt Poker players to appear on the program and as soon as this announcement is made public, someone contacts these players and tells them they have to go.\u00a0 Morbid this kind of surveillance is kinda weird.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cLet it slide the first few times\u2026.had interview all lined up\u2026all of a sudden the player can\u2019t come on.\u00a0 Everyone is in a cloud of secrecy right now.\u00a0 If they can\u2019t pay these players accounts and pay these pros, this is a major problem.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Towards the end of the show, the Quadjacks hosts speculated that they think the Full Tilt Poker pros will be fired soon just like the UB\/Absolute pros were. And while this is all very interesting, we’ll just have to see how accurate the predictions are.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just days after UB and Absolute Poker let go of their signed pros, rumors are flying about Full Tilt Poker possibly dropping their poker pros.
