888poker has pulled off a major coupe by signing British pro Ian Simpson to its roster of brand ambassadors. 888poker unveiled Simpson at the recent 888poker LIVE Barcelona festival where Sandro Hauser took down the Main Event for €56,800.
Simpson left a career in teaching to pursue a professional poker career after finishing fourth in the 2012 Irish Open Main Event for €107,500 ($141,623). The rest, as they say, is history. The ever-popular Simpson has since forged a poker career spanning a decade and is showing no signs of slowing down.
