PokerStars WCOOP Champ “theV0id” Disqualified

Poker Stars has taken away the first place prize from “theV0id” because an investigation found that he was using two computers on the same IP during the tournament. This is strictly against the Poker Star.com Terms and Conditions so they took away the first place prize money and redistributed it to the other players in the tournament.

The bubble boy of the tournament must be very happy as he now moves up a place and will receive part of the prize pool. It is great to see Poker Stars so careful and when an allegation comes up they immediately investigate and make sure no foul play is involved. In this case there was foul play and they did the right thing to redistribute the prize and make a point to other players that they will not get away with this.
