WSOP CHAMP SUES HARRAH'S
30 October 2009
Unauthorised use of image and untrue quote
alleged
2007 World Series of Poker Ladies Event champ Sally Ann
Boyer is sufficiently angry and offended at Harrah's
Entertainment and the World Series of Poker Academy to
open litigation against the two.
The case
revolves around claims by Boyer that Harrah's and
Post-Oak Productions trading as the World Series of
Poker Academy used her name and likeness for advertising
without her permission or approval, and falsely claimed
she endorses the World Series of Poker Academy.
Boyer accuses the WSOP Academy of running ads that
include a photograph of her after winning the Ladies
Event with the quote, "The quickest way to your WSOP
Bracelet!" referring to her as an Academy graduate,
which she notes she is not.
Boyer's suit seeks
unspecified damages, a restraining order, an injunction
and recovery of profits associated with the use of her
name and likeness.
