6 poker scandals that rocked the industry

Published on:

4. Chris Ferguson – Full Tilt Poker
Chris Ferguson is a professional poker player who has won six World Series of Poker events. He was one of the founders of Full Tilt Poker, an online poker site that was launched in 2004. In September 2011, the US Department of Justice filed a complaint against the company, alleging Ferguson and others for siphoning funds from their loyal customers to their own accounts and lying about security deposits to the public and customers. The case against Ferguson, however, was later dismissed in February 2013.

But the angry customers, including the fans of Ferguson, felt betrayed and questioned if the founder of Full Tilt Poker absolutely nothing about what unfolded. Ferguson was also later dismissed from the case in February 2013.
