Andrew Neeme Announced as New WPT Ambassador
World Poker Tour recruited Andrew Neeme to its ambassador team. Let's check out why in this article.
New Roster of WPT Ambassadors Introduced
Andrew Neeme needs no introduction to the poker community. Although the professional player and vlogger (176k subscribers on YouTube) tournament career haven't been that sounding ("only" $110k in profits), he's widely recognized across brick and mortar casinos in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, not to mention his massive online audience. He partnered with Doug Polk to run a card room in Austin, Texas.
Recently his career got another boost after he partnered with a new brand:
From May 2022, Andrew Neeme will represent WPT as a brand ambassador.
He’s in good company. Other WPT brand ambassadors include American DJ Steve Aoki, actor and director Vincent Van Patten, and poker hostess Lynn Gilmartin. Brad Owen, the most popular poker vlogger on YouTube, is also on the roster for the famous poker brand.
The freshly signed Neeme will most likely join online games in the brand new online poker room WPT Global. He said about his new partnership:
"Incredibly special and surreal moment for me. I’m linking up with WPT to bring more poker vlogs, streams, and MUGs around the world. The WPT was instrumental in getting me and countless others into poker, and I couldn’t be happier to work together to do more."
The poker community embraced Neeme as a new ambassador; personalities like Joey Ingram, Veronica Brill, and Lex Veldhuis, among others, congratulated him.
What to Know About the World Poker Tour and WPT Global
The WPT was founded back in 2002. Over the years, it built up a solid reputation as the second most prestigious poker tournament series, only behind the World Series of Poker. However, while WSOP bracelet events are only held for a couple of months (usually in Las Vegas in the summer and in Europe in the fall), the WPT is hosting tournaments around the world year-round. In July, the following main tour stop will be held at The Venetian in Las Vegas, Nevada. The series is currently in its 20th season.
With all that great experience, WPT has recently decided to take on a new endeavor. In April 2022, just a month ago, they launched WPT Global. It’s a fresh new online poker platform available in 85+ countries. You can take advantage of unique promotions by registering with us.
