Fortune Poker Shutting Down

After 9 years of offering online poker on the Boss network, Fortune Poker has decided to call it quits. A message is now posted on the Fortune Poker main page informing players and affiliates of the news. Games will be available until March 31st. Any remaining rakeback owed to players will be paid on April 1st and players will have until the end of day April 2nd to make withdrawals.

Players are instructed to contact jen@fortunepoker.com with any concerns prior to April 15th. After that, players are instructed to contact EnvoySweSupport@envoyservices.com for any cashout related queries or support@pokerresponse.com for any Gaming related queries.

For players looking for alternatives on the Boss Network, we strongly recommend Poker Heaven or Interpoker. Both poker rooms are established poker rooms offering 30% rakeback, 200% up to €1,000 sign-up bonuses and exclusive promotions through PAS.

Below you can read the full statement from Fortune Poker:
