Paddy Power Poker have revealed they have added to the list of players on their books for the World Series after Ciaran O'Leary has been signed to represent the Irish bookmakers and poker room in Vegas and beyond.
O’Leary hit the limelight after winning Event 3 of the WSOP last year, the $1500 NLHE bracelet tournament. On his way to netting over $725,000 and the coveted bracelet, O'Leary earned some new fans with his fun demeanour at the table. Constantly running away from the table every time he was all in, the Irishman was one of the most entertaining players of the Series – something in itself when you had Hevad Khan dancing like a monkey and Humberto Brenes pulling out his sharks.
A representative from Paddy Power Poker outlined their delight in signing the Irishman. 'Ciaran is the perfect choice to act as the face of paddypowerpoker.com; he is one of Ireland's best players, he is popular on and off the tables and he is always up for a bit of fun – just like us!'
O’Leary is also pleased to have joined up with the Gaelic gambling firm. 'I'm thrilled to have signed with paddypowerpoker.com and to have the opportunity to represent them live and online', said O'Leary. 'To be honest, signing with Paddy Power Poker made the most sense to me; they're a company after my own heart. Not only is the poker software and range of games top notch, but they're known as the most fun and friendly room around; I wouldn't be involved with anything less!'
