Laurence Toney has confirmed that he has left as general manager of Zynga Poker. The veteran of three years at Zynga joins a list of departures in the past month that includes CMO Jeff Karp, chief security officer Nils Puhlmann and the creators of Words With Friends.

“My departure is less about Zynga and more about the vast number of opportunities that currently exist in the Valley,” said Toney. “I have been approached by several organizations to lead teams and companies that I find exciting and compelling. It is the right time for me in my career to move on.”
