Name: Saout. First Name: Antoine. Profession: Professional poker player. Nationality: French. Team: Everest Poker Team. Remember the name of this 25 year old player with a phenomenal ability in poker. Unknown to the public a few months before hand, this Breton is going to make waves in the world of poker and he will probably reach the highest levels thanks to his official sponsor, Everest Poker, with whom he has just signed a contract as a professional player. We wrote about this atypical player who is one of only two non- American players in the final phase of the 2009 WSOP which will take place in November 2009 in Las Vegas (see the article “ Profession : Professional poker player”). Certain to pocket a very full envelope even if he is quickly eliminated from the Main Event Tournament in which Phil Ivey will take part; the young Frenchman will do his best to stay at the table and will continue to defy probabilities. Antoine Saout is now one of the main players and he is assured of participation in the world’s greatest tournaments notably thanks to his sponsor, Everest Poker, which will finance his travel and his inscriptions in poker tournaments. It must be said that the investment in such a player will quickly be profitable for the online poker room mostly thanks to the numerous new players who will see the Frenchman wear the Everest colours during the 2009 WSOP Main Event.

As for knowing what was hidden as regards finance between the Everest Poker poker table and its new recruit, nothing has been revealed but one can imagine that this young man with a promising future received a seven figure cheque. Everest Poker has risen to be among the best online poker sites in France. Then, over the years, the appearance of new online poker rooms increased the competition notably rooms like Titan Poker or Poker770 or rooms more aimed at Texas hold’em poker clients like Fulltilt Poker or Pokerstars. Everest Poker will celebrate its fifth birthday. To celebrate it in a fitting manner, Everest poker decided to create an enormous media buzz by setting up a special offer called “The 5 Billion Hands” which consists of celebrating the winner who will have the opportunity to play the 5th billion hand. On the 4th of March 2005, Everest celebrated its 10th million hand, on the 1st of January 2006, the 100th million, the 17th of April 2007 the billionth hand and the 5th billionth hand should take place this month. Everything is open to celebration to attract players and create a maximum buzz. This 5th birthday linked to this 5th billion hand confirm the success of this online poker room…as well as the amazing revenues brought in over these 5 years with these 5 billion hands.

On the 7th of November next, Antoine Saout will be wearing a t-shirt or a cap bearing the Everest logo. Let’s hope that this Breton will reach the summit of success in the WSOP which is far from the Himalayan summits. To be continued…
