The Pokerstars.com blog is bragging this week about adding tennis great Boris Becker to its team. The six-time Grand Slam winner has been playing poker since his days on the clay, saying it helped him relax and focus in between sets.
“Though it would take a true student of tennis to understand the similarities in the game, Becker has already noted the strategy, psychology, and decision-making under pressure that is required of both endeavors,” comments the blog.
Becker’s first appearance as a Pokerstars pro will be on the European Poker Tour’s Dortmund stop early next year.
He is expected to bring with him all the luck and skill that established him as a sports figure.
