I hear you. Still a lot of poker players mad at him because of the poker site he owned. Had a chance to sell it and pay the players money back and decided to keep the money instead 400,000 dollars then he also lost a lawsuit. Unspecified amount vs two plus two because he bought a forum with the same name but and refused to take it down so they took him to court he lost that lawsuit to and paid unspecified amount.

Dutch Boyd should be buried in a cornfield with Chris Ferguson and Howard Lederer. It amazes me that these crooked, poker site running con men have not gotten their comeuppance for all the people they stole money from.

Ya gotta wonder why they really aren't dead!
Lederer and Ferguson took tens of millions directly from players. The mob will off you for $5/$10k if you stiff them.

I have to chime in here. I've read so many "heresay" stories about Dutch and what happened with Pokerspot. Most of it is completely false. You can't believe everything you read.
Firstly Pokerspots payments processors defaulted twice leaving them company with little money. This was a mistake on Pokerspots part, not keeping enough funds in case of such an emergency but they were young and inexperienced people, experiencing an exponential growth in an unknown market.
After the payment processors defaulted leaving Pokerspot out to dry, Dutch & co. struck a deal with Golden Palace that was to include full repayment of all Pokerspot players. Golden Palace put an exploratory time in the sales contract of several months in which they relocated Dutch, his brother and a programmer from Europe to Canada to help implement the code into GP's website. After the "exploratory time" Golden Palace reduced their $ offer by 2/3 and rescinded the repayment offer for all Pokerspot players. Dutch wouldn't agree to the terms and was promptly escorted out of the GP building by security. Golden Palace then implemented Pokerspots code into their website anyway and Dutch & co. received nothing.
Dutch then tried to sell the site & code to other people who had expressed previous interest but was unable to do so. The code was then made open source and the rest is history. Dutch made very little money over the months Pokerspot was operational.
Yes Pokerspot made some operational mistakes but all this talk of them keeping players money is utterly false.
Dutch's Kickstarter and was launched to help fund our book project so the real Pokerspot story could be told. None of the money raised was used for Poker.
I hope you will give the book a chance as it's a great read from a guy who has 2 WSOP bracelets (and is currently deep in the 2013 Main Event).
