It wasn't long ago since we learned that Aussie poker pro Matthew Kirk had filed a lawsuit for over $3 million in unpaid loans made to King. The history of the World Series of Poker Europe is one of changes of scenery, as the marquee event has bounced from U.K. To France to Germany to its current home at King's Casino in Rozvadov on the Czech-German border. If King's proprietor Leon Tsoukernik has his way, those migratory times are coming to an end. 'We have built a new home for WSOPE, just what WSOP Europe should have.'

“I just want to thank @TheRealAnsky for all he is doing. We have the most self-interested job on earth yet he is managing to unite everyone”
Huckleberry Seed
“Boycotting stars for 3 days? What is that going to do? Just stir up more buzz about stars and get them more players? 3 days? Why not boycott them until they fire everyone at the top and hire poker players. Or silently close your acct and move on. Or work on building a new site, decentralized peer to peer for the players by the players on the deep web, impervious to governments.”
Sam Greenwood
“Looks like @Pokerstars’s servers followed @TheRealAnsky’s lead and started striking.”
