BLUFF EDITOR FIRED OVER FULL TILT CHEAT
14 December 2007
An unhappy sequel to a disquieting affair
The online poker operator Full Tilt Poker.com took swift
and credible action some weeks ago when it examined and
found wanting the big money tournament play of Chris
Vaughan, the managing editor of Bluff Magazine,
following a complaint by an opponent (see previous
InfoPowa reports)
Vaughan and the formidable 21 year old Internet poker
ace Sorel Mizzi subsequently bared their souls and
apologised for their actions in an interview with Poker
News, acknowledging the personal price they had had to
pay in terms of disqualified winnings and damaged
reputation, but the matter has not ended there - at
least as far as the misguided Vaughan is concerned.
This week Bluff Media took action, terminating Vaughan
and making the following announcement:
"Bluff Media, publisher of Bluff Magazine, has made the
decision to terminate Chris Vaughn as Managing Editor.
"In light of Chris' involvement, recently admitted facts
and the feedback obtained from industry professionals,
it became apparent that the credibility required to
perform the job functions of Managing Editor of Bluff
Magazine at our company's level of standards have become
severely diminished.
"While we regret having to make this decision, we
believe that it is the best alternative for all parties
involved, including Chris, Bluff Media and the poker
playing community at large. We wish Chris the best of
luck."
Bluff has not made any further statements on who will
succees Vaughan as Managing Editor.
