26th February, 2010

One of the best uk poker rooms is continuing it's theme of signing up top sportsman, with the addition of an Italian football star.

Francesco Totti has signed up with Party Poker as their new online poker ambassador, speaking out for Party Poker and taking part in their online poker tournaments, as well as being the face of Party Poker in their advertising campaigns.

The World Cup winning star, who plays for top Serie A side Roma, said of his signing with Party Poker...

'I have faced many challenges in my career and I always apply myself with skill, intelligence, loyalty and passion. You need all these abilities for poker and it is also a game that excites me and is a lot of fun.'

A spokesman for Party Poker added to Totti's sentiments...

'He is one of the greatest football players of his generation - the question is now will he be one of the greatest poker players of his generation too? What Totti strives for he normally succeeds in achieving! He is a huge signing.'

Totti follows in the steps of Ashes winning ex-England cricketer Phil Tufnell, who is the face of Party Casino's new advertising in the UK.
