Mike Postle s legal record will not wind up as spotless as his livestreamed poker ledger.
Postle took a rare loss last week when he reportedly requested dismissal of his own suit in which he alleged defamation by a slew of poker personalities and media entities
(disclosure: PokerNews was a named party in the suit). The dismissal was granted and signed off on by a clerk in the Superior Court of California on April 1, according to a document released by defendant
Veronica Brill.
As Brill and fellow defendant
Todd Witteles had countered with anti-SLAPP motions to strike that were still under consideration, Postle will by default concede on that front, meaning he s on the hook for the defendants legal fees as Brill announced in her tweet.

The market was titled Bill Perkins vs. Landon Tice HU Challenge. According to the terms of the challenge, which encompasses 20,000 hands of $200/$400, Tice must pay 9 BB/100, which amounts to $720,000. The winner will be the player who shows a profit post-handicap.
Chan, apparently under the impression the market was for who would win more money straight up, thought the line seemed strange and canvassed a few friends. None seemed to believe anything was too crazy, with only one calling it a good bet, but Chan put in a max wager of â¬1,000. He attempted to fire two more max bets when the line didn t move, but those were subsequently canceled because of the site s policy of a â¬1,000 max on the market per user.
