Caby and Wiggins, two college friends and big winners on the Ultimate Bet poker site, would film their screen while playing online and narrate their thought process. They then sold access to those videos to subscribers. In April 2008, Lee Jones left his position with the European Poker Tour (EPT) to join CardRunners as its Chief Operating Officer (COO). Prior to his work for the EPT Jones was the Poker Room Manager for PokerStars.[3] Jones later left CardRunners to become the poker room manager for CakePoker. In 2008, CardRunners merged with StoxPoker.com, founded by Nick 'Stoxtrader' Grudzien, to form Cardrunners/StoxPoker. In March 2010, Grudzien was forced out of the company after a multi-accounting and collusion scandal that broke on the 2+2 forums. The StoxPoker brand was subsequently put to rest, and the website was merged into CardRunners.com.[4] Several instructors left to competing site DragTheBar.com [5] In 2008, CardRunners partnered with Full Tilt Poker and several members of 'Team CardRunners' became Full Tilt Poker 'Red Pro's' including Caby, Townsend, David Benefield, Brian Hastings and Cole South. CardRunners went out of business in 2017.[6] References1. ^1 2 {{Citation |title=Cardrunners Review |work=pokertrainingguide |url=http://www.pokertrainingguide.com/reviews/cardrunners-review/ |accessdate=October 26, 2012 }} 2. ^{{Citation |author=Ryan Nelson |title=Interview with Taylor Caby (GreenPlastic) |magazine=Bluff Magazine |url=http://www.bluffmagazine.com/player-interviews/Taylor-Caby-GreenPlastic-1308.htm |accessdate= |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090118214144/http://www.bluffmagazine.com/player-interviews/Taylor-Caby-GreenPlastic-1308.htm |archivedate=January 18, 2009 }} 3. ^{{Citation |author=Haley Hintze |publication-date=April 21, 2008 |title=Lee Jones Named New CardRunners Chief Operating Officer |work=PokerNews |oclc=455364890 |url=http://www.pokernews.com/news/2008/04/lee-jones-becomes-cardrunners-coo.htm }} 4. ^{{Citation |author=Dan Cypra |publication-date=March 25, 2010 |title=StoxPoker to Merge with CardRunners on May 1st |work=Poker News Daily |publication-place=Las Vegas, Nevada, United States |url=http://www.pokernewsdaily.com/stoxpoker-to-merge-with-cardrunners-on-may-1st-9301/ }} 5. ^{{Citation |author=Sean Gibson |publication-date=March 22, 2010 |title=StoxPoker Rocked Again by Grudzien Controversy |work=Poker News Daily |publication-place=Las Vegas, Nevada, United States |url=http://www.pokernewsdaily.com/stoxpoker-rocked-again-by-grudzien-controversy-9228/ }} 6. ^Poker Update: CardRunners Becomes Latest Poker Industry Casualty External links
