Phil Galfond Sells RIO Poker Site to Rush Street, Will Remain in Key Role

Two months following Run it Once's global closure, Phil Galfond took a step towards launching the poker site in the United States. But he no longer holds ownership control over the poker site he founded in 2019.

Run it Once, previously only available outside the US, has been sold to Rush Street Interactive (RSI), a company that develops online gaming products in regulated markets. Galfond will continue to serve as a key RIO employee.

"My day-to-day role will look very similar to my previous one," Galfond told PokerNews.
