World Online Poker Champion TheV0id was disqualified in the premier event at Pokerstars.com forfeiting his $1.2 million payday
In a release from Pokerstars security team:
“The investigation into the WCOOP Main Event has now been concluded. We have determined, based on the totality of evidence, that the tournament winner 'TheV0id' was in breach of the Poker Stars Terms of Service. In the interests of Game Integrity, 'TheV0id' has been disqualified from first place. All other WCOOP Main Event prize winners in addition to the player who originally bubbled in 415th place will therefore advance one place in the prize pool. The necessary financial adjustments to reflect the revised tournament places will be made within the next 24 hours. Please note that we are unable to release further details of this investigation, for reasons of confidentiality and privacy.'
A headache for the cheat but a sweet payout for the player who bubbled out of the tournaments and for 2nd place ‘ka$ino’ will now collect an extra $530,000.
