Leon has more nerve than brains.

I am very surprised he's in town.

Aussie Matt trying to end up in a barrel of acid in the middle of the desert.

Calling Private World to the Phone.

Surely someone has an update.

Less conspicuous just to blend it in with other industrial waste.

Wow Tsoukernik admits he took the money but claims legally it's unenforceable and hence he's not paying :O

Tsoukernik owns King's Casino, which has that high stakes lounge at the WSOP.

This doesn't make any sense. Leon must have been heavily drinking or more to the story I'm sure we will hear. The guy has money and owns a casino. Multiple reports he is connected guy

Jesus, the guy who hosts WSOP Europe and the largest cardroom in Europe.

I hope there is more to this than is reported because that looks horrible.

Crazy how much money is shuffled around like nothing. I dont know what is Leon thinking here, how can it be good for his brand. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt but as it seems he is saying Im not gonna play and there is nothing you can legaly do.

That's crazy, he's admitting he received the money, just trying to wriggle out of it by claiming it's not legally enforceable.

Essentially what Zima tried to do. If Kirk wants paid he needs to establish a theme song asap.

Who would have thought lending 3m without any formal record was a terrible idea

Hopefully they keep him in the States until this is sorted .

Would Love to see Matt get his money and this Lying ****** Scum lose his Passport and the Poker World grow some Balls and deny this **** any Action and No Tournaments at his POS Casino.

Thats because in Eastern Europe suing someone is a huge offense, its not like in America or other countries where its "the normal thing to do"

I wrote some pages behind that, when Matt sued Leon he turned his chance of receiveing the money to Zero because he turned Leon his enemy

Matt was not smart and he had no clue about how things really work on high stakes poker world

Im sure Leon would pay Matt (with some delay and probably in his casino chips), but now Leon will not pay due to what Matt did

^^yes, Matt is the scumbag here.

Im not saying that

Im just saying that Matt had no idea what he was doing when he sued

It shows that he doesnt have the social skills to handle high stakes poker debts

Poker world works differently than regular world and thinking that the "Country's Laws" will back you and defend you in any sort of way is a proof of stupidity to say the least

my guess is Leon is used to pulling stuff like that on poker pros, who put up with it knowing that he's gonna keep losing millions to them anyway (as shown by the story from few years ago). However, this time he tried to do this vs recreational player posing as a poker pro, who just wouldn't let it go, we'll see how it turns out.

Wow so Leon has No chance because he has sued for the money

Give me a break ff s Leon has already TOLD him he wouldnt pay anymore, so by your version Not only is Leon a POS Scamming Scumbag he is a Farkin Liar as well

What a Surprise I hope he gets his just deserts and someone shoves a Red Hot Poker up his arse, then make him walk into the same Casino.

Same attorney's for Kirk who also handled Ivey's case. Should be interesting how this plays out.

BTW, there is a nice documentary on Netflix about the press in the Hulk Hogan Sex Video lawsuit. They also cover the Las Vegas Review Journal buyout from Adelson and it's impact it had on the reporters.

Where is the outrage? This guy is a criminal and thief with no honor. It's funny how people try to minimize it when it's only second to outright fixing the game.

Nvg crucifies for much much less, like a little MA'ing.

I never understood why people were talking so positively about him when it was so obvious he's a slime ball not to be trusted..... apparently not even to play against.

This might make sense if Leon hadn't tried to pull crap like this before. Matt obviously had reason to believe that Leon might try to stiff him, especially if Leon didn't communicate enough.

There's at least one thing wrong with this statement.

Leon is an absolute pos it's clear this was a loan and Leon choosing to gamble with it is entirely his business if the judge doesn't rule for Matt gg to Vegas casinos offering credit to whales. It's especially egregious because matt paid him when he won previously

I will never play in leons casino when he's an untrustworthy welching scumbag.

Anyone excusing leons actions is an untrustworthy scumbag themselves who should have their marketplace approval revoked for endorsing welching and refusing to pay loans/debts

Haha, doesn't necessarily have to be her boot, but the most threatening piece of footwear close to hand will be heading your way

Yayo part 2

Assuming what we know so far is true - All of this ^^.

If the details of this story are ever confirmed, this POS needs to be 86ed straight out of the poker community and gaming industry as a whole. If I were the Rio, Caesars, AND the Nevada Gaming Commission, I'd be having a face-to-face with him and his lawyers ASAP to go over these details to determine the validity of the accusations AND his absolutely unfathomable alleged response.

How this guy got his brand, casino, and name plastered all over the walls in the dead center of the WSOP is already a questionable move by Caesars. But if Matt's accusations prove to be accurate, it is Leon's brand, casino and name that should end up in a barrel of acid in the middle of the desert or at the bottom of Lake Mead, never to be heard from again.

Disgusting.

A little background, Leon's lawyer, who is an excellent attorney, is the former head of the Nevada Gaming Commission. I think this private contract matter however is before the Courts, not the Nevada gaming authorities.

Utter scum
