LAS VEGAS (AP) — Lawyers for World Series of Poker winner Jamie Gold and a Los Angeles-based TV development executive agreed to a court injunction freezing $6 million, half of the top prize, in a dispute about a deal to split the winnings.

U.S. district court judge Roger L. Hunt was expected to sign the order soon, said Richard Schonfeld, the lawyer for plaintiff Bruce Crispin Leyser.

“Everybody agreed the preliminary injunction would be issued,” Schonfeld said Tuesday.

The injunction would prevent the money from leaving the poker tournament’s host, the Rio hotel-casino, until the case concluded. Gold’s lawyers would have until September 15 to challenge the injunction, he said.
