FTP just went down... Hard.

I guess this is where we differ. I've never understood why people feel it's a realistic scenario that an investor will swoop in and contribute funds to pay debts that were effectively borrowed in order to burn. What would this individual be buying? Certainly not a brand; it was seriously tarnished even before this. Not a player pool...a not-insignificant percentage of FTP players are just interested in getting their cash and moving it somewhere else or getting out of poker altogether until rosier times. There are no other assets to speak of.

The software, the Rush Poker patent.

The software, the Rush Poker patent.

The software likely isn't something that can't be developed or purchased more cheaply (ie. for less than the amount of debt outstanding + risk) from other vendors but you have something with the Rush patent.

Again though, if I'm an investor interested in that patent, all I have to do is wait for this company to fold and I can pick it up without the accompanying brand headache.

Give up on the investor idea, imo.
