Yesterday at around 4 p.m. PokerStars sent out an email to its U.S. players in which the poker company explains that cash outs are now available. 11 days after Black Friday, PokerStars players can initiate the cashout of their entire bankrolls at the cashier. They were informed of this in the email below.
"In light of recent developments, PokerStars is no longer offering real money play to residents of the United States of America and its territories.
The PokerStars Cashier is now available for you to cash out the funds in your real money account balance. We strongly recommend that you use the bank transfer option; to use it, you will need to have your current banking information at hand.
Please note that due to the expected high volume of cashout requests, we anticipate a delay in processing and delivery of your funds. Rest assured that your funds are safe and we will process your request as soon as possible.
Please contact paymentservices@pokerstars.com if you experience any issues.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Regards,
PokerStars Support"
Players must cash out their whole bankrolls and can choose between the following methods:
- Wire Transfer (minimum $50,000)
- Check (minimum $100)

Players with less than $1 cannot get their money back, PokerStars will donate them to charity.
