Instead of paying Aussie Matt Kirk back the $3 million he borrowed during a 2017 late-night poker session at Aria in Las Vegas, King’s Casino owner Leon Tsoukernik has filed a second countersuit.

Millionaire businessman and high-stakes rec Tsoukernik has been embroiled in a series of court battles with Kirk this past year or so, but the legal dramas were swapped for incredible poker dramas this week, with Tsoukernik emerging some $3.5million ahead.

English highstakes crusher Sam Trickett, Dusk Til Dawn owner Rob Yong, US highstakes amateur Lauren Roberts and Jean Claude 'The Wolf' Bitoun joined the duelling duo, and there were no signs of any leftover resentment at the $3million argument which PokerTube has reported on over the past year, instead series of massive pots and incredible plays taking centre stage…

Playing everything from $100/200/400 to $500/$1000/$2000/$4000 PLO, with some $2000/$4000/$8000 HU PLO thrown into the mix when players had been bloodied and bruised by the huge swings of Omaha, Tsoukernik suffered a massive cooler in a hand against Yong.

Flopping a straight and watching as your opponent happily bets into you is the stuff of dreams in No Limit Hold’em of course, but PLO is a different beast altogether as Leon found out to his cost on day 2 of the big game.

…and despite Leon flopping the nut straight, with $80k in the middle and Yong betting into him, he found himself a 46% dog in the hand – “odds worse than roulette!”

Describing it later as “a dream hand to flop”, it would all become a nightmare for the Czech cardroom owner as Yong finally shoved all-in, Tsoukernik snap-calling… and $941,000 sitting in the middle.

Although the court case involving Kirk and Tsoukernik may well remain a mystery - both men perhaps fed up with rising legal costs estimated at a combined $800,000 or just preferring to settle their differences on the felt as poker players - the final tally from the Playground Poker Club’s huge PLO action was in Leon’s favour at least…

Leon Tsoukernik	+$2.8million
Rob Yong	+$1million

Sam Trickett	-$400,000
Matt Kirk	-$3.9million

Dusk ‘Til Dawn casino owner Rob Yong has weighed in on the $multi-million Matt Kirk versus Leon Tsoukernik legal case, offering his version of the events which followed a late night heads-up match between the Aussie pro and the King’s Casino owner.

In a blog post entitled ‘What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas [NOT]’, Yong recounts the aftermath of the match which saw Kirk win $3million from Tsoukernik, which the Australian followed up by raising a legal action claiming the Czech high-roller was refusing to pay his debts.

‘Articles referencing my involvement in brokering a deal between Matt Kirk and Leon Tsoukernik have some inaccuracies, so I will tell the poker community the stone cold facts,’ wrote Yong, two days after Tsoukernik launched a counterclaim in a Nevada court, seeking more than $10million in damages and naming the Aria Casino as a third party litigant.

‘I was sound asleep when the Leon Matty game happened,’ Yong states, having himself been playing in the Ivey Room at the Aria until the early hours of May 27th this year, but later that morning he says ‘Matty came over and told me that he had won $3M heads-up off Leon last night and was worried about being paid.’

Kirk then explained to Yong that he ‘didn’t want to hit and run Leon’ and was ‘heavily pressured by Leon to continue’ after the Czech casino mogul got extremely drunk, Tsoukernik blaming staff at the Aria for his condition and claiming that their role in the match rendered the ‘unfair, dishonest and non-competitive’.

What is not in dispute is the fact that Kirk loaned Tsoukernik $3m, although Yong ‘didn’t understand why Leon would loan (sic: borrow) money to play’ as he had ‘$4M + on deposit from roulette winnings’.

Yong continued:

‘Matty asked me what he should do. I replied, ‘I am sure Leon will pay you in full but if you feel a bit bad, and want to give him a small discount as a goodwill gesture that would also be okay’. Matty asked me what discount. I replied after some consideration, ‘Maybe $2M cash and play heads-up for the $1M.’

Backing up Tsoukernik’s claim this week that Kirk agreed to a settlement deal, Yong says:

‘Matty agreed and asked me to propose this settlement to Leon. Matty wanted to settle today before playing Leon again as this was a large sum of money.’

According to Yong, Tsoukernik told him:

‘Tell Matty not to worry, I don’t remember much but whatever I lost I will pay today’ and when Yong explained the offer Leon replied ‘fine, whatever Matty wants’.’ Yong adds that he ‘shouted Matty over and Leon and Matty hugged and shook hands on this $2M + $1M heads up deal.’

The story gets really interesting at this point, touching on something which Tsoukernik has mentioned several times in his l
