Patrik Antonius sign with Poker Royalty
18th March, 2008
Poker representation agency Poker Royalty has added Patrik Antonius to its ever-growing list of professional clients.
The 27-year-old Finn has raked in more than $2.6 million (£1.3 million) in the past few years, including ten World Series of Poker cashes and two on the European Poker Tour.
Having also earned a reputation as being a high-flying Texas Hold'Em player on the 'Big Game' - going face-to-face with luminaries such as Doyle Brunson and Barry Greenstein - Antonius is now primed to make the most of Poker Royalty's global management and marketing services.
"Patrik is one of those rare combinations of natural abilities, looks and raw talent that can transcend the game of poker," commented Chris Porter, the agency's director of sales and marketing. "Add Poker Royalty's resources and core business relationships and Patrik will be an even brighter star on the tour and off."
Antonius added that he was "very excited" about the new relationship and that he believed the agency provided a service "no other company can".
Other big names on Poker Royalty's list of clients include Gus Hansen, Phil Hellmuth and Johnny Chan.
