The Weare CIS website began its work in 2009 — shortly after the player Ivan Demidov took 2nd place in the main tournament of the World Series of Poker and received $ 5.6 million. You can read about this success in the column in Kommersant of another of the founders of GipsyTeam, Ilya Gorodetsky. The idea of creating the site belonged to Demidov himself and Stas Alekhine. Initially, it was supposed to be the site of Sergey “Gipsy” Rybachenko’s team, which all the founders of the site were part of at that time.
