I listened to Dennis Phillip's radio show yesterday and they had Annie on.  She explained several things to dispel all the rumors circulating.  Let's see if I can remember the Cliff Notes:[LIST]
[*]She resigned, they did not let her go.  And she had no knowledge that Phil was leaving.  The timing was a coincidence, and an unfortunately one according to her, since it fueled a lot of conspiracy theories and unfounded speculation.
[*]She has a lot of other business ventures going on and was wanting to get out of endorsements.  She actually made the decision in the summer or fall, so I guess she was just waiting for a contract expiration or something.  She has two books in the works and some other projects she wanted to focus on, including her involvement as a legalization advocate.
[*]Specifically, she stated she did NOT leave to join her brother at FT, even though she understands why people would suspect that.  She left Ultimatebet to get away from endorsements, not go after another one.  She said that when you see her playing in live tournaments this year, she'll be wearing NO sponsor patches at all.
[*]She doesn't know anything about Phil's situation, but suspects that he left to go to PokerStars.  When she actually suggested that Dennis would have some inside info there (him being a Stars Pro), he quipped "no speaky English" and later mentioned to his co-host Paul Harris that it had been discussed but he had no inside information that it was going to happen.[/LIST]
