Constant Rijkenberg Staking Scandal
As confirmed by a moderator of pokernews.nl and William Franceschine (who had 5%), Constant has still not paid most of his backers for his EPT San Remo win. It is now confirmed that he sold more than 100% of himself, simply not intending to pay most of the people who backed him. According to the PokerNews.nl forums he has had issues like this in the past and is known for making shady staking deals.
Hopefully he comes clean, pays what he owes and can be a good ambassador for PokerStars, as it stands he should have no trust in the poker community for any type of monetary agreement.
