No. They paid (or will pay) 80m.
BREAKING: DOJ and GBT Ink Their Deal, FTP/GBT Next in the Queue | Subject: Poker
Is it possible the DoJ has already decided to use seized money or that they made some sort of back room deal to get the money from Tapie? Sure. But no one with any knowledge has ever said a deal means US gets paid in full or for that matter how much of the 80m will go into the remission pool.

Maybe. there are rumors that they may just re open the FT client to us at some point with no functions besides a w/d button. If we end up getting paid in full this would clearly be the best choice. If they need to pay us in stages and evaluate each claim for taxes, phantom deposits etc I would think they would want to do that up front & outside of the FT client. Also, attempting to apply logic to this process is probably futile.
