“We are looking forward to welcoming high-profile, poker professionals to the Isle of Man.

Other Team Poker Stars Pro members who'll be hitting the Manx tables are home favourites Liv Boeree, Jake Cody, Victoria Coren and Dale Philip as well as online grinder Mickey 'Mement_Mori' Petersen and former WSOP Main Event runner up David Williams.
