Entraction and Potraiser.com part companyOnline poker network Entraction and its former client poker site, Potraiser.com, have parted ways sparking a war of words between the sites over what occurred prior to the split to cause it.

A statement from Entraction appeared yesterday saying, “Entraction Network Ltd has terminated the agreement with the poker site potraiser.com. The reason for the termination is Poraiser’s repeated breach of Entraction’s network rules.

Head of key account management at Entraction, Slava Korneychik, said, “The network rules are an important tool to make the Entraction poker network a vivid and attractive network for operators to run a successful business, and for players who want to enjoy a game of online poker.

“If a partner choose not to comply with the rules, we have no alternative but to terminate the contract for the sake of Entraction, our partners and the players.”

Potraiser.com then responded with its own statement saying it “…terminated the agreement with Entraction on July 21, Potraiser signed a new agreement with another network on August 10 [with a] planned launch date on 28th of October."

Managing Director, Fredrik Rahnasto gave his take on the split saying, “Entraction reacted badly to the news and did commit a severe and intentional breach of contract when they went ahead and banned our players from playing on their software. Naturally we will have our solicitors contacting Entraction to see if this matter has to be resolved in court.”

“Entraction claims that Potraiser have violated the network rules but Potraiser have never got any fines during the 5 years it has been operating on the network.”

Potraiser did not announce which network it has signed a new agreement with.
