How to Get Sponsored

Be Female

Poker sites are already inundated with plenty of sponsored male players but are still on the look out for the next attractive female star. Since there is still a major minority of females playing the game, poker can only benefit with more females. So what is the best way to lure females to the game? Well have plenty of males and of course also some females to curb the macho factor and aggression of it all.

Be Part of Their Target Market

With poker expanding all over the world, poker sites are heavily targeting certain geographical areas as the main growth points over the next few years. Such countries like Russia, Japan or Brazil are growth countries where the poker is set to boom. If you happen to be a player from that region, expect a lot of potential for sponsorship and promotions work that entails!

Actually Win Something

Well poker sites do like to back champions and winners so the best way to prove to a site that you can play is to actually win a big tournament. The World Series of poker would be nice but some other major tournaments are essential to make your resume thicker.

Think about what you are doing to make yourself a marketable player. Play lots of tournaments and hopefully you can join the lucky few out there who are paid to play poker.
