A web based poker player has filed a lawsuit against operator Full Tilt, through which the corporate is accused of being controlled from throughout the US and using software to regulate hand results. Lary Kennedy, a whole Tilt patron, filed in La County Superior Court against the corporate and pro players Howard Lederer, Phil Ivey, and Chris "Jesus" Ferguson.
Since the scandals at Absolute Poker and supreme Bet, online gambling customers has been worried about software manipulation of Internet games. Kennedy alleges that bots are playing hands at Full Tilt with the data and participation of the poker site.
Kennedy also says that Full Tilt has used a zero-tolerance policy instituted after the cheating scandals on the other poker rooms to accuse legitimate players of being bots, and seizing their money. Kennedy says this happened both to her and other players.
The pros are included within the suit because they're named at the site as having contributed to Full Tilt's design, and Kennedy says they're the controlling force behind the preferred online poker room.
Full Tilt has asserted that it's regulated by the Kahanwake Gaming Commission, on Indian land in Canada.
