Exciting news for PartyPoker as Poker Hall of Fame member Mike Sexton has decide to join them in the position of Chairman after a long and wonderful carrier as a commentator.
Mike Sexton and his team have already taken PartyPoker and their live tournament series to another level. The Live Millions just tour recently completed their stop over in Barcelona and Montreal where each one offered some $10 million in guarantees and hope to continue at this level by announcing a further $10 million guaranteed Caribbean Poker Party at the brand new Baha Mar Resort in the Bahamas during November 2018.
PartyPoker Online are also stepping forward with the online MILLIONS that is expected to boasts an all time high $20 million guarantee which by all standards is by far the highest online tournament prize pool to date.
Sexton said that to be honest, the same would apply to him now at partypoker in spite of the fact that he is now chairman in title – he said “ I’m also a member of team partypoker, so to speak, so I get to play in these events. And you know, there are mega guaranteed prize pool events on partypoker LIVE’s tour now, so I also get to play for big money”. A win win situation for both Mike Sexton and PartyPoker I would say.
Mike Sexton also went on to say “ that it is all about the players and you have to listen to the players, whether it’s about making the live tournaments more enjoyable or upgrading the online software. I think players appreciate the efforts that we’re making to listen to their suggestions and improve. And, I also think the players appreciate it when you can throw a big number on a guarantee like $10 million.”
