On Saturday evening, for the first time since 2010, 2000 World Series of Poker Main Event Champion and former Full Tilt Poker Director Chris Ferguson sat down to play at the WSOP.
The much maligned Ferguson had not been seen at a live poker event since the infamous "Black Friday," on April 15, 2011, when the U.S. Department of Justice shut down Full Tilt and other offshore online poker operators, later seeking to amend it's civil complaint against Full Tilt specifically, saying Ferguson and three other company directors were running a Ponzi scheme that paid out $444 million of players' money to themselves and other Full Tilt owners.
