I guess intertops-party combo is dead?

Was supposed to happen within days two weeks ago, early next week last week, but no word so far - so I guess it's dead?

I do not know whether it is dead, but i see no risk in signing up for rakeback at Intertops and hoping you can get Party rakeback that way. I mean worse case scenario it does not work and you close your Intertops account.

The poker link on the intertops page now takes you directly to partypoker.

Just logged into Intertops and there is a message that they are owned by Party Gaming, still on the skin network at the moment. Would expect them to flip the switch in the next week.

Intertops Poker is simply becoming an affiliate of Party. If you goto www.Intertops.com (http://www.Intertops.com) and click on the poker icon, it goes straight to Party Poker.

What is this expectation based on?

I read on cardplayer that intertops is going to be controlled by Partygaming and partygaming would have access to the intertops player database. Nothing about a merge though.

What has happened is old news, what will happen has not yet been released, to my knowledge.

Has any current intertops player received an email from Intertops or Party, with regard to how they are being handled?
