As the world's biggest online poker room PokerStars is always busy with arranging sponsorship deals, hosting live and online poker events, contracting professional poker players, and every other thinkable action that could further boost the PokerStars brand.
The Poker Star
Among this list of other thinkable initiatives PokerStars was willing to engage in, is the recently announced Poker TV Show called The Poker Star. In this Reality TV Show Joe Hachem puts 11 poker players to the test in order to find out who will be the new member of Team PokerStars Pro Australia.
Official Sponsor of Rugby Team
PokerStars is active in all parts of the world, and hence was delighted to hear that it had been elected as the official partner of England's Rugby Team. This will be put into effect by means of PokerStars advertisements at all major matches, with further promotional opportunities still being evaluated.
England Rugby Challenges
As one would expect from a highly involved poker room like PokerStars, the Rugby Poker Challenges have already been put into place. For a buy-in of $22 English and Irish players can compete for 1 of the 10 pairs of tickets to England vs. Argentina, in the November 7 England Rugby Challenge.
Then on November 11, and November 14 new challenges will be held to dish out hospitality and regular tickets to the match of England vs. New Zealand.
