This week, instead of the Weekly News Digest, we present a round-up of four outstanding PokerStars videos from the last few days.
Celebrity Duels
What happens when some of the world’s greatest footballers take on Hollywood stars at the felt? Yesterday, PokerStars released a series of online videos showing all the action from dueling celebrities in the name of charity. PokerStars has a global, long-term vision to introduce poker to new audiences. As part of that, PokerStars created these online videos to showcase stars from the worlds of football, movies and fashion taking their skills to the poker table in one-on-one battles. The videos feature six global celebrities:
American actor Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad – ‘Jesse Pinkman’)
Football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal)
British actor John Boyega (Star Wars – ‘Finn’)
Current Miss World, Mireia Lalaguna Royo (Spain)
Football superstar Neymar Jr (Brazil)

Malec Winning EPT Barcelona
Sebastian Malec qualified for EPT Barcelona for just €27 in an online satellite at PokerStars.EU and after a rollercoaster of emotions at the live felt, the young Polish man parlayed this small amount into €1,122,800, an EPT title and a giant trophy. For the rest of us, however, he created a special memory with a truly epic final hand, taking selfies with the crowd, and making history in a special way as he became the final EPT Barcelona Main Event champion.
