It's taken more than four years to complete but a few days ago poker forum 2+2 won its legal case against Dutch Boyd.
When the poker industry was just beginning to boom Boyd was not only a top ranked player but somewhat of an internet tycoon and aside from creating his own poker site he purchased the domain name twoplustwopoker.com.At the time he purchased the URL the 2+2 forums were an established brand and it was his intention to use this for his own personal gain by either leverage the name or by forcing the forum owners to purchase the domain from him.The owners of 2+2, Mason Malmuth and David Sklansky, saw this as copyright infringement and took legal action against Boyd (although they did offer to settle out of court beforehand).In 2012 a court ruled in favour of 2+2 and awarded the company damages, but it wasn't until a few days ago that another judge rejected Boyd's appeal and ordered him to pay $60,000 in fines.
