[EurekaKid]

They seem to be being pretty tight lipped about it. I'm just looking forward to a change of scenary and hoping that the new network has a good amount of traffic.

We'll have more information out to our players as soon as we can and for sure before the 14th.

If you had informed players earlier it might have prevented some of the flury of cashouts your experiencing. Uncertainty= exodus

I dont think there was going to be anyway to avoid that. FCP support has always been top-notch and I sure hope all is going well with the transition.

Looking forward to a new and improved FCP.

One thing I loved abour FCP was the amount of tournaments. I hope the new pad will have quite a few.

welcome to FCP

I'm psyched about this. I had taken my money off FCP because I got fed up with OnGame, and I needed to finance a vacation, haha.

This news about the new network was literally music to my ears. I loved FCP, but just didn't like the network problems I would have with every session. I'm really excited about this, and will definately be re-depositing on the new software when it comes out.

Lets get an announcement!!!

[HangukMiguk]

I'm seriously still under the belief it is either UB, or LVFH (TigerGaming). I'm hoping for the former, obviously (just to see Prty have another flipout over Royal HE.)

The 14th is in two business days. We aren't going to find out the day before are we? Just make a thread and say that charter members are the only ones allowed to read it. Put it in general.

Well, a new home for FCP can only be an improvement, and since there is no choice in the matter, we might as well be positive about it.

The sites that are pure poker are going to take a stand, probably arguing (correctly) that poker is not a game of chance. For FCP to join up with a pure poker site (as opposed to a casino/gambling site) would be a positive step IMHO.

I hope that the new home for FCP is *not* another online casino.

It would be a pioneering step for Daniel to talk one of the casinos in Las Vegas to set up a "FullContactPoker Room" with computers all on FCP, as an experiment. The casino would (of course) keep part of the rake. It would not have to be very big, could also be temporary, but would be good publicity for the casino that tries it.

Personally, I think an offshore FCP company with directors that are not U.S. residents but FCP fans is the best solution because in time, I am sure that FCP could itself grow to be a big poker playing site just by promoting play in a positive way, much like partypoker did, and compete.

I volunteer as a director and I am sure there are other FCP players that are into business in a serious way would step up.

It would not be hard to do and allow Daniel to *own* the site without running amuck of the poker prohibition laws that are on their way in the U.S.

I am not saying it would be easy to set up, but it is definately possible in Antigua, Gibraltar, or Costa Rica.

If bodog were to relax its rules barring Canadian players it would be a match made in heaven.

Make no mistake: FCP (and its horde of poker-playing squirrels) is a crown jewel for any online site.

Some key positives of changing to this new poker network.
· This poker network shares FCP’s commitment to serve players anywhere in the world
· FCP is able to keep its same high-performing customer service team
· This network will encourage FCP Community suggestions and commit the necessary resources to implement the best ideas into the poker software
· We anticipate soft games overall with the heavy influence of sports & casino betters
· There are new features like easy to find table stats in the lobby, kill pot tables and automated high-hand promos

The 14th is not too far away. If by before the 14th you mean the 13th, that's pretty cheesy. Why all the secrecy? You know where you going, why not tell everyone so you can give them a chance to not deposit elsewhere?

Hey FCP_Info,

I know you guys are being pretty hush hush about it, but I'm going to ask a few questions on the off chance that you can speak on them.

1) Will the SNGs be 9 or 10 handed? For SNGs, 9 handed sucks, because it doesn't make it as profitable per game.

2) F1,F2,F3 keys? I'm soooo used to using these things that playing without them has been a major pain in the ***.

3) Customizable graphics?

4) Player classifications? Not just notes, but that actual color-coding? That's another thing that I have become very used to using and helps out tremendously.

5) Flop/Turn percentages?????? OnGame was the only network that had them and that was an awesome feature.

6) How many other closed down sites have joined forces with you?

Anything you can tell us is greatly appreciated.

[weakdraw]

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it

[JediFlopper]

I have been plaing on prima. I like their sng format. I liked ongame's multis though. I really hope there is enough traffic to drive multi table tourneys like they had on ongame.

Part of the FCP mystery revealed....

Looks like Dimeline Sportsbook will be part of whatever new Poker Network is coming....

Dimeline Sportsbook would like to welcome all USA Players to use our Sportsbook-Casino and Poker Room.


Within the next week we will be getting a brand new Poker Network, which will allow all USA players to play hassle free. Currently USA players can use our Casino and Sportsbook with no problems but are unable to use our Poker room due to Ongame Poker regulations.


Also within the next week we will have five new financial processors, which are located outside of the USA so deposits and cash outs will also be hassle free. Dimeline is able to provide this to our USA customers because we are privately owned and all transactions as well as the Poker Network are located offshore.

hmmm........

[leebs12]

if it is i hope we can use the sportsbook through FCP so i dont need to have seperater accounts, i would move all my bodog sports betting money to fcp
