The Alderney Gambling Control Commission (AGCC) this morning suspended the license of Full Tilt Poker and ordered the site to suspend all operations.
According to a statement issued by the AGCC, its decision was prompted by “the indictments unsealed by US Attorney General’s Office in the Southern District of New York on 15th April 2011, during which grounds were found to indicate that these licensees and their business associates were operating contrary to Alderney legislation.”

A hearing has been set for July 26. The Full Tilt Poker software is now unavailable to players.
In April, visitors to the websites of Togel Hongkong Full Tilt Poker, and Absolute Poker were surprised to find these domains unavailable when United States prosecutors announced the indictment of the founders and chief executives of these online poker rooms on charges of bank fraud and money laundering. The day became known in the industry as Black Friday.
Titan Poker and the iPoker Network withdrew from the United States market following the passage in 2006 of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA), which makes it a crime for gambling businesses to knowingly accept most forms of payment in connection with the participation of another person in unlawful Internet gambling.
Since Black Friday, American players at Poker Stars have been able to withdraw their balances but players at Full Tilt Poker have been unable to retrieve their funds. Absolute Poker, meanwhile, is reportedly on the verge of bankruptcy.
