Doyles Room US Accounts May Transfer to Full Tilt PokerDoyles Room US online poker account holders may either cash out or they were provided with an option to transfer monies and points to Full Tilt Poker.
In what turned into a confusing afternoon here at Gambling911.com, Doyles Room eventually confirmed they will be leaving the US market for good.
A press release had been issued to Gambling911.com, published, then placed on hold after Doyles insisted they had not made a final decision.
Angry online poker players were left pondering the reliability of what had been posted at Gambling911.com.
"Gambling911 is doing far more harm than good recently!" said one angry poker forum poster.
What some failed to realize is that this was simply an internal company press release issued to us that apparently got out of the gate too early. Gambling911.com has had dealings with both Doyles Room representatives themselves and the online poker room's public relations firm who generally oversee all press.
Don't shoot the messenger.
As always, Gambling911.com remained in constant communication throughout the afternoon in an effort to clear up any confusion. Ultimately, Doyles Room agreed it was a simple case of press releases getting out before finalization.
Affected players wishing to use the account transfer option may log into the Client Software and click on CASHIER / DEPOSIT / DEPOSIT (at the top of the page).
"We ask that players wishing to withdraw their funds be patient. DBPN assures all its players that their funds are safe but in view of the likely demands on processing staff in the forthcoming weeks, cash outs may take a little longer than usual to process," a statement issued to US customers read.
DoylesRoom.com will continue to serve non-US players and will re- focus on Canada, Europe and Asia-Pacific, though this has proven difficult for once powerhouse poker rooms like now defunct Paradise.com.
