PokerStars, which is the biggest poker room in the world, has recently come to the rescue of many poker players after the forced closing of the site Fleet Street Games.
FleetStreetGames.com (FSG), which started in February of last year, offered players from the world over the opportunity to enter many poker tournaments every month for a monthly fee. However, with the slumping economy, FSG was not able to raise their second-round of funding and within a few months of their launch of real-money play the website was forced to close down.
PokerStars.com and FSG have made a deal where PokerStars will take over all balances from FSG players, therefore making sure that there are no FSG players that are left out in the cold. FSG players are invited to transfer their old balances onto PokerStars. Also, PokerStars will be hosting a freeroll series of poker tournaments for FSG players in order to welcome them to PokerStars.
Dan Goldman, President and CEO of Fleet Street Games, LLC recently stated,
Many FSG players will, I am sure, already be familiar with PokerStars. It is, as I know from long personal experience, the best all-round online poker site in the world and although we are obviously extremely disappointed that we couldn’t make a go of FSG in the present economic climate, we are thrilled that we have been able to secure such a great new home for our players.
