Groupe Bernard Tapie’s Last Ditch Effort with FTP

Apparently, just before the announcement was released last week that PokerStars would be acquiring Full tilt, the key negotiator & Groupe Bernard Tapie principal Laurent Tapie, issued a request to FTP to reconsider.

Here’s some inside details on what went down:

What do you think of all that’s going down? In a longer term sense, do you think this will help rejuvenate online Poker in the US?
