[belgamo]

RTG software has given notice to partiues using its software that as of April, 15 2013 they are stop allowing US players to play on thier sites. As this news just btoke I am sure many casinos are planning on how to handle this as far as with payouts and if they will cut off players sooner. I will post more info as I hear it it. Bel

Doesn't surprise me! Haven't deposited at an RTG for quite awhile. Just have played freebies for fun!

It was just a matter of time before this was gonna happen.Even the top RTG sites are starting to get very slow with the payouts.Oh well. i am just glad we have a land casino here and on April 9th the racino opens up right down the street.So what will US players be left with to play at? Cleos?

 

[krystalkitty]

Winaday, Slotland and Cleo's I suppose. I loved to have more of a choice who get's my money.

Belgamo is this a April Fools joke and if it is this is NOT funny

 

[krystalkitty]

Was thinking it was crazy, but don't think it is or at least hope not. It really wouldn't be lucrative to his forum for this type of joke!

krystalkitty Belgamo and Mben like to play joke's like this to get us going

 

[krystalkitty]

OK...lol Time will tell

 

[belgamo]

GIGS UP! APRIL FOOLS!

Gang:I have no idea if this is a joke or not, but I agree with KK that this would not be a lucrative move for him.Will know more soon. My gut feeling tells me this is NOT a joke. RTG has been struggling with paying players a for awhile now, and perhaps they are as tired of it as we are of waiting to get paid.Watch this thread for updates.

      You da man!!!! You got us!!!  I'm a 

 for falling for that one!

So i see we have a comedian in the group.It took me a few hours till i realized what day it was.Nice one!!

 

[Mben]

Don't feel bad, TonyT. I crapped my pants (figuratively, not literally! LOL) when I read that this morning and I knew it was April 1st. If it were true though, I wouldn't be surprised (after the initial shock of me crapping myself wore off). Like you said, it was just a matter of time. MG pulled the rug right out from under us, just like that. So why couldn't RTG do it too? But all is still as we know it in the online gambling world! Thank Goodness!!!!!

Oh yea, I totally fell for it. Hook, line, and sinker.The thought of RTG dumping the US made me rather sick.Glad it is just a joke. Nice one Belgamo.
