The current whois details look dodgy as.
poker.com.au is now a live site .. looks to have been aquired using the recent changes to the AUDA policy relating to trade mark holders having rights to register AU domain names ... there is no actual Australian connection involved with this registration except perhaps the registar being an accredited AU registrar ? ... Registrar Name Safenames Ltd
Poker TM .. where .. what Country ? Poker.com applied for a US TM years ago the may have it dunno .. cant be bothered checking the USPTO data base .. when they applied it was for their full URL poker.com ..
Without the recent open rule changes 888 could not have aquired this name without using an Australian proxy .. this is the first major use that i have seen of a TM being used for a domain transfer/registration ..
The name was sold by Moniker.com/Snapnames in an unpublized manner .. nobody knew about it .. well nearly nobody
Moniker usually have a domain transfered to themselves as the name holder before a deal/sale/escrow can be completed is Moniker AU accredited as well ?
This sale is a big deal for AU domains .. i looked up Pokerstars.com.au this is also a TM registered domain ..
The outside World is taking notice of .com.au
