  • WPT Festa Al Lago: Cole in Pole – Deeb Und Ferguson in Top 10
    WPT Festa al Lago: Cole in Pole – Deeb und Ferguson in Top 10 Von M. W. Im Rennen um die vier Millionen Dollar Preisgeld wird e simmer spannender. Corwin Cole holte sich die Pole-Position und ist mit knapp einer Million Chips Favorit auf den Titel, der mit 1.218.225 Dollar belohnt wird. Von den 96 Teilnehmern sind noch 37 im Turnier. Heute müssen noch zehn davon raus, damit sich die restlichen Spieler ein Preisgeld von mindestens 23.855 Dollar abholen können. Freddy Deeb und Chris Ferguson stiegen dank einer Sonderregelung erst am gestrigen zweiten Tag in die Veranstaltung ein und liegen bereits auf dem achten und zehnten Platz. Für Chris „Jesus“ Ferguson sah es kurz gar nicht gut aus, als er und sein Gegenüber auf dem Board von D710/9 All-In gingen. Es selbst hatte zwar die Dame zum High- Pair, doch auf der anderen Seite zeigte sich D/9 für zwei Paare. Ferguson muss allerdings einen Schutzengel gehabt haben, denn schon am Turn folgte der König. Der Gewinner der 2009 Legends of Poker Prahlad Friedman liegt mit 188.000 im hinteren Feld. Seine Ehefrau führt ihm derzeit vor, wie es besser ginge. Dee Luong (Bild) liegt nämlich mit 771.500 Chips auf dem ausgezeichneten vierten Platz und ist natürlich die beste Frau im Event. Für Tag 1-Chipleader Mike Matusow, Justin Bonomo, Jonathan Little, Scott Clements und Mike Leah ist die WPT Festa al Lago bereits gelaufen. Corwin Cole schmiss kurz vor Ende Bob Safai, der ein Paar Neuner hielt, hinaus. Cole callte mit A/J und sah am Flop eben diese zwei Karten in einer anderen Farbe auftauchen.

  • The Stars Group Welcomes Landmark U.S. Supreme Court Ruling Permitting Sports Betting
    The Stars Group Welcomes Landmark U.S. Supreme Court Ruling Permitting Sports Betting Decision opens the door for The Stars Group to expand business broadly in the United States TORONTO, May 15, 2018 /CNW/ - The Stars Group Inc. (NASDAQ: TSG; TSX: TSGI) reacted today to the decision by the United States Supreme Court to strike down, as an unconstitutional exercise of federal power, the nearly 30-year ban on sports betting under the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, or PASPA. Congress enacted PASPA in 1992, which resulted in all states, other than Nevada and three others, being prohibited from authorizing sports betting. The litigation that reached the Supreme Court arose from New Jersey's repeated attempts to resist the federal ban and to legalize sports betting within the state. "The decision by the Supreme Court is an important step forward in the regulation of sports betting in the United States," said Marlon Goldstein, Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer of The Stars Group. "We believe we are well-positioned to take advantage of any new business and market opportunities, and to work with state legislatures in setting up sports betting frameworks that satisfy local consumers' interest in sports betting while protecting them through safe and regulated betting environments." The decision follows The Stars Group's recent announcement of its agreement to acquire Sky Betting & Gaming, the fastest growing established sports betting operator in the United Kingdom, the world's largest online gaming market, and its recent acquisition of 80% of the combined CrownBet and William Hill Australia businesses, which combined form the third largest online sports betting operator in Australia, the world's second largest online gaming market.
