Tribeca Network Leaves US but Doyles Room Stays
The online poker room founded by and endorsed by living poker legend Doyle Brunson, Doyles Room, long ago announced that they have no intentions of leaving the US online poker market, despite the changes in US poker legislation that came down in mid October of this year. What called this decision into question recently was the network behind Doyles Room, Tribeca Network, issuing a statement Friday that it would be pulling out of the US market. Analysts of the poker market were curious to see if Doyles Room would follow suit, crumbling in the face of loss of support, but the room has remained firm.
