Online Poker Room Dodges Lawsuit

Online poker room PokerStars was facing a $1.2 million lawsuit from poker player The Void, surrounding one player’s claim of winnings that were taken from her. The event was during the 2007 World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) when The Void’s account won the $1.2 million. The Void is supposed to be Natalie Teltscher, sister of a poker pro, but she admitted that another player took over the account at some point in the tournament, and that person eventually won - which is against the rules. However The Void recently withdrew her claim to the money.
