Brunson tweeted: 

He asked how much I had on tilt and I told him 150k.. He said come with me. We went to his car and he opened his trunk and paid me!!!!!!

When the folks at Quadjacks.com approached Lederer in Vegas a few weeks back, he didn’t bother opening the trunk.  Now we know why.

Full Tilt Poker owes countless numbers of customers around the world millions of dollars after executives from the company were indicted by the US Justice Department on April 15.  The Alderney Gaming Commission subsequently pulled their license on June 29, rendering the company powerless to operate.
