I just read an article that she was and tried to sue Full Tilt, but why did they kick her off the team??

Just a guess but they probably had a few candidates they felt were much stronger --Antonius-- and they thought they could get out of the contract without a huge payout?

I won't get into the details, but Clonie took Full Tilt to court over money she felt she was owed, insisting she was a founding member of the site. Use your Google to read more about it.

Clonie claims that when they were starting up Full Tilt... she was called into a hotel room and was offered a 1% stake in the site by founding memebers Howard Lederer, Phil Ivey, Chris Ferguson, Phil Gordon, Jennifer Harman, and Patrik Antonius.

Clonie claims she hasnt been paid anything of that 1% stake... and now the founding members are saying she was never offered the 1% stake.

i would guess this is the reason she is no longer a part of the Full Tilt team.

i have heard that 1% stake is work a lot of money... over 8 figures.
