PartyPoker has boosted the ranks of its pro team with a couple of high profile additions.
The first is Aussie Millions winner Tyron Krost. The 23-year-old has only been playing for 5 years but already has earnings totalling seven figures. After depositing an initial $50 he worked his way from low stakes limit games through to larger buy in tournaments and some big cashes. He made the money in the 2008 WSOP Main Event and followed it up with his epic win in this year's Aussie Millions.Krost said, “I suppose it’s any serious poker player’s dream to get a sponsorship, and I can’t think of a better site to represent than Partypoker.“From speaking to all levels of management, it’s clear to see that the site is moving in the right direction. I feel incredibly lucky to be a member of Team PartyPoker, and offered the chance to help make Partypoker one of the best places to play online”.Also joining the Team PartyPoker ranks is Formula One driver Jaime Alguersuari. The Spaniard became the youngest ever F1 driver when he took part in the 2009 Hungarian Grand Prix and will act as a brand ambassador taking part in a series of exclusive PartyPoker promotions and tournaments."Some say that I am a novice in F1 and I would say the same about poker. I have loved the game from afar but with all my driving commitments, I have a lot to learn. I recently got my first points in F1 and am now about to secure my first PartyPoints at PartyPoker.com," said Jaime. "The popularity of poker in Spain is on the rise and I cannot wait to be part of it and improve my skills at the table by playing online. Poker is so popular amongst the F1 drivers at the moment, by becoming an ambassador for PartyPoker.com I aim to be the best of them all!"The pair join a PartyPoker pro team that already includes Tony G, Mike Sexton, Kara Scott, Dragan Galic, Bodo Sbrzesny, Ian Frazer and Felipe Ramos.To sign up for an account and take advantage of some very juicy sign up bonuses visit PartyPoker
