He won the EPT Grand Final title for $3,196,354 after he overcome Isaac Baron, Luca Pagano en Antonion Esfandiari- being a Canadian poker pro.<\/p>\n
Chrony couldn’t stay at the top of the poker tree although he still had a handful of deep runs following his EPT into events with $10,000+ buyin.<\/p>\n
Wrong Business Backed by Chorny<\/strong><\/p>\n Chorny decided to invest his money in what seemed to be an lucrative opportunity after collecting more than $3 million in prize money in the poker industry before 2008.<\/p>\n Chorny was promised a 10 percent net of a $2 million-a-day haul by Philippe A. Rouas, the founder of the poker-themed social media site- this according the lawsuit he has against Poker World Society Inc.<\/p>\n ‘Sold on the idea and more than a million dollars into the investment, Chorny claims the business failed to deliver what was promised and ceased operations at some point between 2009 and 2010.’<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In an effort to recoup his losses, Chorny has since that time been battling against this enormous form of mismanagement and misinformation.<\/p>\n Chorny definitely feels that he lost his money unfarily to Rouas and Poker World Society Inc. and therefore just recently visited the Marion Superior Court to file a lawsuit against the corporation.<\/p>\n There’s certainly no doubt that Rouas made it look like a fabulous enterprise, regardless of the much-hyped PokerBattle.com and the ins and outs of Poker World Society Inc.<\/p>\n In Cannes you could see a host of big name poker pro’s partying like rock stars, when you look back at a PokerNews interview from 2008 with the ‘Poker Battle Warriors’.<\/p>\n There was certainly no expense spared on the pre-launch party as we saw plenty of poker pro’s walking down the red carpet, like David Benyamin and Chris Ferguson.<\/p>\n Now we know that the pre-launch party may have been premature as the site PokerBattle.com only shows: ‘coming soon’.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After taking out a lawsuit against a failed poker company, the 2008 European Poker Tour (EPT) Champion, Glen Chorny, is now looking to recoup some of his bankroll.
