Kid Poker teams up with poker room at 2007 World Series of Poker
Monday 11th June 2007
Leading online poker room PokerStars.com, has announced today that one of pokers’ best loved personalities, Daniel Negreanu will be joining its team of pro players.
The ever popular Canadian, who was named the 'Player of the Year,' by the World Series of Poker, the World Poker Tour and Card Player magazine, as well as 'Favorite Poker Player' by Card Player in February 2006, is looking forward to developing an already blossoming relationship.
'I've enjoyed a long personal relationship with the folks at PokerStars since the company's founding in 2001 and have always felt as though PokerStars fully understood what players wanted: lots of tournaments, lots of variety and great software,' he said.
'I'm very excited about joining Team PokerStars. The organisation seems like the perfect fit for me and I'm glad they feel the same way.'
Negreanu has won three World Series of Poker bracelets, winning his first in 1998 (in the first WSOP event he had ever entered) at the age of 23, making him the youngest bracelet winner ever at that time.
“Daniel embodies what poker and PokerStars are all about: enjoying the excitement and the challenge of poker,” said fellow Team PokerStars Player Barry Greenstein. “Daniel is a true ambassador of the sport and we welcome him to the Team as well as all of his players and fans from Full Contact Poker. We know they will enjoy the PokerStars experience.”
