Online Poker Room Gives Sponsorship Prize

A football coach and bus driver is the world's newest pro poker player, thanks to a sponsorship package deal paid by Betfair Poker's Iron Man Challenge. Frank Sorensen, a 31-year-old poker player from Copenhagen, won a $20,000 sponsorship package as part of Betfair's 12 Plays of Christmas promotion. Sorensen played a lot during the holidays but wasn't aware of his progress until a buddy pointed out he was ahead on the leader board. Now that he won the deal he is considering hanging up his bus keys and focusing on poker full time.
