Tapie group says Lindgren, Ivey, Matusow owe Full Tilt money

Posted by Lasse Hamar 03/02/12

According to a statement released to PokerStrategy.com, players such as Phil Ivey, David Benyamine, Erik Lindgren, Mike Matusow and Barry Greenstein collectively owe Full Tilt Poker between $10 million and $20 million.


“If the money doesn’t come in, it creates a serious obstacle to completion of the deal,” Dayanim explains.  ”This isn’t the only issue with the takeover, and the deal won’t end on any one issue – but this is a substantial item.”


Barry Greenstein has issued a couple of statements on 2+2 outlining his position. In them he says that he owes Full Tilt $400,000 but will hold fire on paying it until the US Department of Justice has established a method of paying US players. You can read both statements, complete with plenty off comment from the 2+2 community here.
