UK poker company and LSE listed Devilfish Gaming, founded by poker star Dave Ulliot, has announced that it has come to an agreement to sell off all share capital in it's online poker company, to as yet an unidentified third party.

In a statement to the City, Devilfish Gaming said of the deal that the sale will come in at just over £300,000, with the issue of new ordinary shares on the LSE AIM Market.
