Lex Veldhuis – The Twitch Star

While playing that night, Veldhuis got the message from PokerStars about his new record. At that time he had 32,839 viewers. To remind, official record in Twitch viewers still holds Jason Somerville. He is the only streamer who had more than 37000 viewers at one time.  But, it looks like that Veldhuis has a potential to break it.

This is not the only online streaming record that Veldhuis recently broke. He reached 6000 subscribers on his Twitch. To celebrate that, he decided to play 25,000 WCOOP-62-H High Roller. “The $25K is going to be a very tough tournament for me,” said Veldhuis during his stream Monday night. “I have no illusions on being profitable in that tournament. We’re doing it as a stream celebration.” 

While Doug Polk, another Twitch poker star, has announced retirement, looks like Lex Veldhuis is more motivated than ever to write history in this new poker branch.

Ali Imsirovic said:

“There are very few things that can compare to this. This win is very prestigious for me because this event series has all the top players in the world. I know the World Series of Poker main event is seen as more prestigious, but in that event, you need to get very lucky across nine days battling against a below average field. In these fields, you constantly have to play your best because otherwise, you’re just going to get destroyed.”

Here is the chart of top 10 places racing the Poker Masters Purple Jacket in 2018:

As you can see, David Peters was just 10 points behind Ali. He won kickoff $10,500 buy-in no-limit hold’em event for $193,200 and  $100,000 buy-in no-limit hold’em main event for $1.150.000.  All we can say that this is an outstanding year for him, as he won 5 live tournament titles, made 18 final tables and cashing for a total $5.659.175 in 2018.

PokerStars’s Unfold Poker

To remind you, In Unfold Poker, players can retrieve their mucked cards and get back in the game. This was something that you couldn’t find anywhere before. It first appeared in Denmark on August the 1st, then later on .UK and .EU markets. However, it never reached the New Jersey market. 

“PokerStars invests in creating and testing products and new variants of poker to suit a variety of player tastes. While not every new development will be a home run, we will keep trialing, listening to player feedback and analyzing engagement with our goal of continuing to offer fresh promotions, formats, and updates that enhance our players’ experience and bring more people to the game,” said Severin Rasset, Director of Poker Innovation and Operations.

This was the 3rd cash game innovation that the biggest poker site released and removed this year.
