TheV0id

TheV0id is the screen name used by an unnamed poker player who won the PokerStars 2007 World Championship of Online Poker, beating a field of 2998 players to the first place and US$1,378,331.00 on October 1, 2007, the largest online poker prize until then.

The account, registered to Natalie Teltscher, the sister of English poker pro Mark Teltscher, was subsequently disqualified and Kyle "ka$ino" Schroeder was promoted to first place winning the $1,378,330.50.

Natalie Teltscher attempted to regain the funds originally won in this tournament and took Poker Stars to court; however, admitting that she did not play the tournament and had an "agent" play on her behalf left her in violation of Stars' rules.

Subsequently Poker Stars released the following:

The final table lineup consisted of highly successful online players, including professionals Josh Arieh (nitbuster) and Vanessa Rousso (LadyMaverick). Rousso moved up to second place as a result of TheVOid's disqualification, taking a prize of $700,783.

Later on, Teltscher attempted further legal action against the online poker room but ultimately dropped the lawsuit in 2008.
