If your earnings are approx £270k you'd be taking home about £3k a week so a poker loss of £90k a year would be about 60% of your income no?

No, the figures are not pre tax. But you have clearly demonstrated what I was alluding to in my earlier post. Financial suicide.

You could have done it in a far less bloviated fashion.
Lawyer by any chance?

Might as well take the fish's money on a site where he (probably) can't be cheated or freerolled.

splits it... what 8 -2 [?] against

but the decision was in Leon's favour - no money to be repaid

But the judge said they could try the case again

Not sure that really is a split

Looks like a first round win for Leon

I made an offhanded reference to Leon not paying his debts on a somuchpoker on fb last week on a wsop kings article and Leon sent me a pm saying I only know one side and the courts would vindicate him and I agreed I only know one side and would wait for a ruling now that we have one... I've never met Leon before and didn't tag him or anything.

It still looks like he doesn't pay his debts and is welching on a legal technicality about gambling debts being unenforceable.

Wsop should pull their event from kings it's disgraceful.

so, Leon's defence is "sure, I owe the money, but it's unenforcable, so I'm not paying"? Way to go for the casino owner...

I think this is much much worse coming from a casino owner, Its not like the guy took the money and ran, he is hosting the WSOPE and will be active in the poker community for some time.

I understand it's difficult for Caesar's to switch locations but I'm sure they would if he were charged with nearly any felony.
If Caesar's does any deal with this con artist in the future I hope players boycott them. I wish Matt could go after him in courts of countries he has casinos in and potentially affect his gambling licenses.

This is an utter disgrace. Can't wealthy people lose money with grace like Guy did?

Didn't Guy suggest that he was cheated

And I guess in a way he was, as others were on the same bank roll and all playing against him

Also if you have billions - losing a million is easier for you to handle... then if like Leon you have millions and you lose a million
