CNNMoney在周四上午声称法国的塔皮集团（GBT??）和美国司法部（DOJ）之间了协议，这样为收购全速扑克Full Tilt Poker（FTP ）扫清了障碍。消息传出后，整个网络扑克界疯了一样传播此消息。

CNN的故事声称司法部已促成交易，全速扑克同意司法部检获全部资产，司法部再8000万美元出售给塔皮集团。GBT负责偿还全速扑克的玩家提款，而司法部会促进支付美国玩家，他们必须来司法部申请赔偿。

后来，FTP发布通过以下声明：

Full Tilt Poker is pleased that the terms of the agreement between Groupe Bernard Tapie and the Department of Justice have been finalized, and that the agreement provides for GBT to repay or make whole players outside of the United States and for the Department of Justice to permit United States players to request compensation out of the forfeited funds. Since Black Friday, repaying customers has been FTP’s number one priority.

Ray Bitar, co-founder of Full Tilt Poker stated: “I am extremely pleased with the efforts of the Department of Justice, and the Groupe Bernard Tapie corporation, and appreciate their continued dedication in working towards a mutually beneficial agreement that will facilitate repayment of the players.”

Now that the agreement with DOJ has been reached, GBT and Full Tilt Poker will now turn to memorializing the final terms of their agreement, to bring this matter to a complete resolution as soon as possible. Full Tilt Poker would like to thank all its customers for their continued patience since Black Friday and during this negotiation process.
