Jason Somerville signs with Team PokerStars Pro - Page 4 - Poker News

The sponsorship deals come for a mixture of achievements and marketability. His results are good but not great by the best of players standards. What makes him standout is his marketability and what's unique to him as opposed to many sponsored players is the amount of work he's willing to put in to try and bring players to the game. Probably the best signing Stars has made in while.

I think he's had 12k+ viewers late last year... Not sure how to look up the exact number -- but he has a strong following.

It was just a matter of time: was clear to me this was going to happen at least since last year.

What level of tournaments and cash games is JS capable of beating on Stars?

Hope he will try out lots of different games, maybe with different co host like he had S Seiver on for some 1-2 NLHE cashgames.

Would be fun to see him play some mixed and PLO.

I haven't watched much of this streaming yet, how delayed is the stream when he's playing these big trnies and such?
