PokerStars Is Now Allowing US Cashouts
April 27, 2011
Tuesday afternoon, PokerStars finally contacted their former US player base via email to inform them of what to do with their player funds. US online poker players were told that they could access the PokerStars cashier page via the software in order to request cash outs from PokerStars.

PokerStars and Full Tilt Poker had made a deal with the Department of Justice to get their domain names back in exchange for their place in the US market, indefinitely. This was supposedly done in hopes of getting the process started of refunding US players’ money that was held in limbo in their frozen and inactive PokerStars accounts. Now US players can now access the cashier in efforts to retain any money they had in their player accounts when all hell broke loose on US online poker’s Black Friday.
If you do not know how to cash out at PokerStars, their email to US players follows:
In light of recent developments, PokerStars is no longer offering real money play to residents of the United States of America and its territories.
The PokerStars Cashier is now available for you to cash out the funds in your real money account balance. We strongly recommend that you use the bank transfer option; to use it, you will need to have your current banking information at hand.
Please note that due to the expected high volume of cashout requests, we anticipate a delay in processing and delivery of your funds. Rest assured that your funds are safe and we will process your request as soon as possible.
Please contact paymentservices@pokerstars.com if you experience any issues.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Regards,
PokerStars Support
