Most of the world’s famous poker players achieved their fame via television appearances. Team PokerStars Pro Online chooses its members solely from online poker players.
The Team is a way for PokerStars to acknowledge the loyalty and accomplishments of our regular online players. It also provides role models for aspiring players, demonstrating what’s possible in online poker with sufficient talent and hard work.
Additionally, the Team provides PokerStars with valuable input to help improve our software, game offerings, and customer service.
In addition to having proven success at the tables, we are looking for people who are passionate about poker. Players who are driven to improve their games, committed to the spirit of fair play, and invested in their local online poker communities.
Other factors which are not required but are definitely considered include:
- being active on social media
- having an active blog, vlog or stream
- being involved in poker education
- contributing regularly to regional or global poker forums
We also look for people with interesting backgrounds and poker histories. Sometimes we will actively seek people from specific countries, or who play a certain game type/stake, as we attempt to maintain a well-rounded team.
