The deal should be signed next week...
According to a source close to PocketFives, Group Bernard Tapie executive
Laurent Tapie (pictured), who is overseeing the much-anticipated acquisition
of Full Tilt Poker, has moved to Dublin, Ireland. The significance? Dublin
is the site of the headquarters of Full Tilt Poker's parent company, Pocket
Kings, and according to our source, Tapie is working in Dublin several days
per week gearing up for a re-launch of Full Tilt. Tapie is the Managing
Director of Group Bernard Tapie.
Our source echoed the latest rumblings from Wicked Chops Poker earlier this
week, which indicated that Tapie's acquisition of the now-dormant Full Tilt
Poker was nearing its completion. The original rumors had the deal being
finalized by the end of February, although this was later delayed to March
16th and then March 23rd. Now, as the industry is closing in on the one-year
anniversary of Black Friday on April 15th, one question looms large: When
will Tapie complete its purchase of the assets of Full Tilt?
"They are finalizing the deal with U.S. Department of Justice, but it's a
done deal," our source said about the latest news. "Tapie is getting ready
to reopen Full Tilt Poker in Europe. The deal should be signed next week."
Whether this information turns out to be true remains to be seen, but our
source is very well connected within the online and live poker communities.
Tapie is rumored to re-launch using the Full Tilt Poker brand name, although
many believe Full Tilt to be too badly tarnished....... | s*********k
