Young WSOP star has an exciting future
One of the young gun players who sprang into sharp focus at this year's World Series of Poker in Las Vegas was Norwegian poker prodigy Annette Obrestad, an almost nineteen year old Internet player who has been making online poker waves under the handle "Annette 15."
At the inaugural World Series of Poker Europe currently running in London she has continued to impress, and this week the Betfair group which organises the European spectacular announced that it had signed Obrestad up as a poker ambassador.
Betfair was quick off the mark in securing this impressive young talent - Annette is currently one of the top ranked online poker players in the world, with both youth and looks on her side.
Commenting on her new role for Betfair, Obrestad said: “I am very happy that we reached an agreement, and I am happy it was Betfair. Their management and poker client are both something I really like. I am looking forward to being a good ambassador for them, and can focus on getting good results.”
Betfair’s Frode Helland said the company was delighted to have signed up such a promising young player: "In our opinion, she is one of the world’s best online tournament players, and we are sure that she will have great success playing live, as well over the Internet.” |
