    Anyone who had money seized by Paypal which you haven't recovered, you can join in this too. E-mail info@eblawfirm.us

    I am not part of this lawsuit, but I really hope it succeeds.

    PayPal ain’t got no money since they lost eBay.
    Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

    I for one am glad that Todd “Dan Druff” Witteles keeps young Eric Bensomachon (sp?) on retainer for all
    PFA members. Considering the amount of help we need - he’s a huge boost to the team. He covers the legal aspects, OSA covers the stairwells.

    Most of the world is carpet, some day we’ll clean them all.

    A lot of reasons for me to root for success on this one:

    1) Chris is in the right

    2) Fuck Paypal

    3) Eric is my friend

    4) Eric did a great job for me in defending the Postle defamation suit

    5) I like Chris and think he's great for poker

    6) Other poker pros have been victimized by this, as well

    7) Fuck Paypal

    I agree all whole-heartedly w/all 7 statements......
    I also know pay-pal got a building of Lawyers and has a lotta folks suing them as we speak. I hope that no one Loses more $ pursuing this so vociferously(sp?).

    BUT DEF ABOUT TIME. I hope they At Least Settle . It is Racketeering Pay-pal is guilty of actually. IMO>. I am Not a Lawyer.

    Oh, for sure they are going to throw some of their full-time, salaried lawyers at this one. Going to be a much tougher challenge to win this than defeating Postle's frivilous defamation suit.

    However, big companies like this have been defeated many times before, even with these teams of lawyers at their disposal. I have faith that Eric is going to put up a vigorous fight for Chris and any other plaintiffs, and don't be surprised if they emerge victorious when this is all over.

    Eric will be appearing on radio tonight to talk about it, and of course we will be giving updates on the case as it progresses.
