POKER PLAYER'S LAWSUIT FAILS
30 October 2009
Clonie's second run at Full Tilt thrown out
Professional poker player Clonie Gowen's $40 million
attempt to sue Full Tilt Poker et al for breach of
contract (see previous InfoPowa reports) has been
dismissed a second time by a federal judge, although she
has one last shot at a resolution.
The suit
concerns alleged oral agreements some years ago on a
share in Full Tilt in return for Gowen's involvement as
a high profile professional poker player. Initially
filed late last (2008) year against Full Tilt and
associated companies and professional poker players, the
case was dismissed by the courts in April this year, but
appeared on the roll again after Gowen amended her suit.
Last week the case was again presented to federal
Judge Robert C. Jones, who denied Gowen's appeal and
granted Full Tilt's latest motion to dismiss the
complaint.
Judge Jones gave Gowen one last shot
at a resolution, however, granting her leave to make a
third and final appeal against Full Tilt Poker associate
company Tiltware in isolation. But Gowen will have to
move quickly, as the window of opportunity for such a
third appeal is open only until October 29, 2009.
