Bryn Kenney Sues GGPoker for Alleged Breach of Contract and Fraud

Poker pro Bryn Kenney has filed a lawsuit against GGPoker's parent company, NSUS Group, alleging breach of contract and fraudulent inducement. Kenney claims the company owes him $5 million in affiliate commissions and a 5% ownership stake.

Kenney alleges that GGPoker CEO Mansoo “Michael” Kim agreed in 2018 to give him recurring affiliate payments and an equity stake in the online poker brand. Kenney claims he helped build the platform’s high-roller scene and recruited thousands of players and agents from 2018 to 2025.

Beyond the financial implications, the lawsuit lays out assertions regarding cheating on the GG platform. Kenney claims Kim assured him security and anti-cheating teams were in place when he agreed to work for the company. Kim allegedly knew of considerable cheating concerns but didn’t act to correct that, according to the lawsuit. Kenney further alleges Kim said the cheating came from players the high-stakes pro recruited. Kenney claims he guaranteed bankrolls for players and paid one player $1 million after Kim failed to pay out $6 million to players.
