We received an email from Chan Poker Support on 20 August announcing that they will be closing on 21 August 2008. Their email follows, as well as instructions how to withdraw funds and close player accounts:

“We are sad to inform you that Chan Poker will be ceasing operation effective this Thursday, August 21, 2008. Effective immediately we will no longer be accepting deposits. On August 21 our poker clients will be disabled.

If you have a cash balance with us rest assured that all withdrawal requests will be honored and promptly processed. To facilitate timely withdrawals, limits for certain withdrawal methods have been increased. We will make every effort to accept withdrawal requests through our website for as long as necessary, however we strongly advise submitting your request as soon as possible. To initiate a withdrawal now, please follow this link to go to your account: https://www.chanpoker.com/account. Please note that once final withdrawals are processed your account will be automatically closed, no further action is necessary.
