howard is lederer is a founder of full tilt , right ? if so ....(2008 Thread)

[WorldNumberOne]

how is he not prosecuted for breaking some kind of law ?

 

[PO69]

I dont think that he is the founder of fulltilt.


BUt he did nothing wrong as fulltilt is not in the USA is it?

 

[WorldNumberOne]

didnt say he was " the " founder . but i thought i heard he was " a founder "

wouldnt what he is doing the same as what jay cohen did ? or similar at least ?

He has no more ownership of FT then Micheal Jordan had with NIKE.
He is just a paid endorser.

However I have heard that Phil Ivey owns a piece of Fulltilt. I have no idea how he gets away with that.

i was under the impression it was the other way around . lederer owns a piece and ivey is a paid endorser

 

[Relentless]

I think they both own a piece in some way. I'm sure they covered themselves though in the paperwork setting it up.

Assuming he is just a pd endorser as Doyle claims to be as well..What makes that any different than yahoo,google or usa today accepting ad dollars from books? the latter 3 all pd heavy fines and hve to run anti - gambling ads as part of their settlement but these "pros" just continue living large.
And what about Russ Hamilton? not only part owner but chief thief at UB ? Stole untold millions...no IRS even?
Id wager they all democrats but who knows...
By the way if howards family never was indicted years ago then he has some bigtime connections...another reason he can do what he pleases while we wait for the knock on the door for betting $50 bucks a game....

PPP's 1st order of business.


Create a mandatory Omaha 8 or better night at least 3 nights a week in Louisiana.

I thought that Mike the Mouth was talking in an interview with cardplayer.com that if he had invested in fulltilt as Howard had asked him he wouldn't have to worry about money right now. I think it was a Scoop interview.

I don't think that Howard STARTED fulltilt but was an early INVESTOR in it which means he probably has money coming out of his ass! I'm sure playing poker because much easier when the thought of "oh if I lose I have a 7 figure check coming next week" crosses your mind.

They are paid endorsers of Fulltilt.net, a free site... Only people who are allowed to play for money of their respective countries can paly with real monies...

No my 1st order of buisness would be bringing down the national debt with Pay per View lynchings.....The 1st night you would get your monies worth with a 6 hour special that would involve about 400 public officials and financial CEO's.........We would save the crying ones for last and show them begging with tears running down on a split screen...Frank, Dodd, Raines, Obama, Bush ,etc would be in that group....
