Poker Encore adds 2 exciting new pros to its ranks
London, 7th April 2011
Poker Encore is pleased to announce the addition of Constantine Paparestis and Simon Jones to its ranks today. Both players will represent the site both online and at live events over the coming year.
Cos (23) and Simon (31) are very well known in UK poker for their fascinating online blogging and will be updating their upcoming exploits online at Poker Encore as they embark on their latest around the world trip taking in Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South America and ending where else but in Las Vegas
Cos has been a regular player on Poker Encore since its emergence last year as prominent skin on the Ipoker network. He is leaving his regular job behind to play professionally both in the UK and whilst incorporating extensive travelling. He has kept a regular diary on Blonde Poker (under the alias GreekStein) for the last few months which has been extremely well received.
Simon has been a professional player for almost 4 years. He gave up his job as a teacher to pursue his interest at the felt and has been focusing mainly on mid stakes online MTTs with strong results. He has also developed a strong following from his regular online blog which he keeps under the alias Amatay.
Poker Encore Director Karl Mahrenholz commented “I’ve been following the exploits of these guys online for some time and the chance to link up at this exciting time for them was too good to pass up. Hopefully they will provide inspiration for the many people who aspire to live this life and give a glimpse into what it can be like”
