FULL TILT PULLS MOSCOW POKER SPONSORSHIP
Full schedule necessitates "re-evaluation of timing"
The Moscow Millions poker tournament scheduled for October 20 to 22 this year suffered a serious blow this week when online poker company Full Tilt Poker withdrew its sponsorship and team appearance due to over-full commitments.
A company spokesman said that Full Tilt would be focusing on other tournament commitments through to 2008, which has obliged it to re-evaluate the timing for the Moscow event. The spokesman cited a full schedule of events such as the World Series of Poker Europe, commitments in Britain, sponsorships in Germany and the 2008 Aussie Millions.
"Recognizing the substantial potential of the Moscow Millions and Russia in general, the company has decided to postpone sponsorship to insure complete dedication to the success of the event," the spokesman said.
Full Tilt has been offering qualifiers for the Moscow Millions for the past two months, offering players weekly satellites to win a $15 000 prize package to the televised tournament.
Despite the exit of this major sponsor, the tournament will go ahead said the organisers.
