The improper release also stated that Team Full Tilt members Howard Lederer and Mike Matusow had been “-hand selected to fill the all-important shoes of poker “wingman.” Again, this is untrue.
Not only did Phil Ivey, Howard Lederer and Mike Matusow never agree to participate in this event in any way, they were not even contacted by Mansion Poker about participating.
A fourth member of Team Full Tilt, Jennifer Harman was in discussions to participate in the event, however, due to Mansion Poker’s obvious disregard for the truth and egregious actions, she will no longer participate.
“Team Full Tilt,” is a select group of the world’s finest professional poker players, including Chris Ferguson, Phil Ivey, Howard Lederer, Jennifer Harman, Erick Lindgren, Erik Seidel, Andy Bloch, Phil Gordon, Clonie Gowen, John Juanda, and Mike Matusow.
