Default PokerShare ripped Mikey the Monkey off!!

Mikey the Monkey and his handler are on Opie and Anthony now

Highlights:

- He didn't even know how to play poker, PokerShare gave her a script to read at every interview. She was actually going to play and Mikey would just push the chips in for her.
- Pokershare made her believe that the monkey would be able to play in the tournament and she would sit next to him even tho she claims POkershare knew from the beginning he couldn't
- PokerShare claimed they would donate the 10k to Mikey if he couldn't enter,they would donate enough money for his habitat (60k) and they'd put a donation button on their site for Mikey, but she hasn't received any of that money and no donation button.
- They have a blog called Mikey's blog which they have no permission to do and are using Mikey's image without permission.
- PokerShare keeps giving her the run around
- She said she only exploited Mikey to raise money for his habitat, she wouldn't of done it if PokerShare didn't promise her money for the habitat.
Scandal of the year???

It's definitely the monkey that Harrah's refused to allow to play in the main event last year on the grounds that it wasn't 21 years old. I loved that.

honestly having a damn monkey play in the WSOP would give poker a horrible name. especailly if it managed to donk it's way into cashing by catching miracle hands.
