Isabelle Mercier Quits Team Poker Stars...
Huh.
|
Cue foot fetish pic.

She's already signed on with BetClick. From PokerNews Nightly:
Isabelle Rebounds QuicklyIt didn't take long for her to sign with BetClick. It was a turnaround of about 2 weeks I think. Although it was nice to see that it wasn't Pokerstars canning her but her leaving on her own. I think Stars kinda screwed her though on the one TV commercial where they don't even use her voice. |
I think that's a poor move on her part..... buisness wise. Maybe she's quitting poker
|
Huh?
Uh, what is it about her signing an endorsement deal with another poker room that makes you think she's quitting poker?
|
I'm wondering if perhaps Stars maybe wanted more out of her than she's currently willing to give. They must want their pros in lots and lots of tourneys and maybe she's wanting to slow down a little and play a few tourneys closer to home. She seems to have pretty much forsaken the North American tournaments in favour of the European events. I knew she had finally bought a place in Monaco but also read that she bought a place back in Montreal as well so who knows.

what did she marry guy laliberte? surely she didn't get that money from poker.

"BetClick, which is most well-known for its sportsbook, but which is attempting to grow its poker market."
So leaving the argueably top (at the very least one of the top two) online poker website for a site known for sports betting and trying to "break" in to the poker world. Maybe she should have went to ultimatebet :eek: |
She wrote a book... probably got a decent chunk for that, and if you're basically freerolling all your major tourneys and have your expenses taken care of for you while living out of a suitcase, it wouldn't be all that hard to save up a bunch of money fast.
Maybe they offered her 10x as much. Who knows? |
