Ladbrokes sign Nebuchad

Ladbrokes Poker is a name synonymous with partnering the best UK players in the world with the best Scandinavia has to offer. Joining Jon Kalmar, Roy Brindley, Jeff Kimber and Steve Davis as a fully sponsored pro is Jonas 'Nebuchad' Danielsson, the 2007 Scandinavian online player of the year.

The biggest winner across all cash games online Europe last year was unveiled as a Ladbrokes Pro last week in Vegas. Nebuchad, who won $3 million online last year, has already cashed three times including the $1,500 6-handed event, the 10k Heads-Up World Championship event, and the $2,500 6-handed event.

To celebrate the new signing, Nebuchad treated the eleven Brits who won the 'Nebuchad Rake Race' promo which we told you about earlier this year to an evening playing poker with models (Including UK glamour girl Leilani) at exclusive club Pure in Vegas, followed up by a performance from the Pussycat Dolls. Not bad for grinding away at the poker tables for a few weeks.

Edward Ihre MD of Ladbrokes Poker commented: "The signing of Nebuchad is great news for us. He's an exciting addition to what is already a very established, respected poker team. Jonas, a very popular member of Team Ladbrokes has already started to make waves having cashed in three WSOP 08 events. So watch this space."

Edward continued: "The Nebuchad WSOP Rake Race promotion prizes were worth $154,000 plus a once in a lifetime experience. We're planning to run a number of fantastic promotions around Nebuchad and our other sponsored players in the forthcoming months, so make sure you visit the site, to see what's on offer. You never know, next time it could be you partying with Team Ladbrokes!"

Ladbrokes Poker still have 34 members going deep in the main event, including snooker legend Steve Davis. Sign up to Ladbrokes Poker to see their exclusive podcasts and don't forget to follow their progress at our exclusive live reporting section.
