Active online poker players will have surely realized till now that Poker Stars is endorsed by some of the biggest names of the modern poker world including Chris MoneyMaker, Peter Eastgate, Daniel Negreanu plus other names which have both found their position on the leader boards of high standard events like the WSOP, the EPT and the WPT. Surely the successful recipe started with Chris Money Maker back in 2003 but over time since has continued to grow longer and become more prestigious every year; therefore attracting more players seeking for the package of the American Dream.
The successful recipe of getting big names on board or identifying players with potential and making them turn out to be names has been successfully been followed by most major poker rooms with Full Tilt Poker being the poker room managing to benchmark the technique with most success by endorsing names like Phil Ivey and Chris Jesus Ferguson under their wing.
Now what makes this post news is that PokerStars is now giving players more chances ever before to watch them play, chat and even compete against them for cash by introducing Team Pro Tuesdays, which is surely a smart strategy to boost the poker room traffic on a so called slow day. On this day every week, scores of the PokerStars pro players will be logging on and playing at the tables, covering everything from cash games to tournaments, across a wide range of games and buy-in levels. You’ll be able to watch your favorite players in action, and talk to them from the rail.
Team Pro Tuesdays will also include two Outlast the Pro tournaments, where you can play against the big names and win cash by lasting longer than the Pros. There are two tournaments running each Tuesday from December 8-29. One at 13:00 ET, another at 20:00 ET. Each has a buy-in of only $11, with $1,000 added to the prize pool. Stay in the tournament longer than all the Pros and you’ll get to split the extra cash with the other players still left in. See the example below for more on how it works. How to find Team Pro and play against them
