Would the world be a better place if Full Tilt Poker was instantly reincarnated and everyone that the defunct poker room owes money to was paid in full? Some would say, for sure, but will that ever come to pass, maybe yes maybe not, but there are still rumours floating about that suggest the reality of that scenario may be upon us.
Full Tilt Poker’s Irish connection Pocket Kings was reportedly taking on staff and that there just may be some truth to all the whispering. It would be spectacular news if the three way deal between the unlikely partner the US Department of Justice and French notable investor Groupe Bernard Tapie and of course the remaining Full Tilt Poker executives have created a new Full Tilt Poker entity. Recently a sharp blogger uncovered two newly registered companies in Malta under the names “Full Tilt Holding Ltd.” and “New Full Tilt Ltd.”
Another person who digs deep from the 2+2 web site discovered Groupe Bernard Tapie principal Laurent Tapie’s name as director and secretary on an Irish registration for New Full Tilt Ltd., which was incorporated on Feb. 14 2012 with a declared capital of €1m. Poker-Red a Spanish facing poker room recently posted a suggestion that on May first details would be announced about Full Tilt’s resurrection via the International Stadiums Poker Tour which is controlled by Groupe Bernard Tapie. The debut of the poker gathering in London’s Wembley Stadium a date still to be announced where as many as thirty thousand poker players would gather to play. The concept is to bring poker to as many players as possible that qualify at online satellite tournaments, as was stated by Laurent Tapie not so long ago. Keeping the vigil on the Full Tilt Poker fiasco could result in another game of cat and mouse for players investors and the Department of Justice in the USA.
