Mats Sundin Goes For Poker!

Mats Sundin, one of the famous hockey players in the world, who is 37 years old already, is deciding whether he wants to play poker in the future. Right now he will represent the face of PokerStars, by playing there and giving all 100% of his earned poker money to charities.

As we mentioned, Mats Sundin, is still thinking about whether he wants to continue playing hockey or retire (37 years for a professional hockey player is really big age). His contract with Toronto Maple leafs has expired, and currently he is one of the highest paid hockey players in the world.

I guess not everyone knows Mats on poker tables, but everyone knows him on hockey field. He began his poker career since he began playing in NHL, right after joining Toronto Maple Leafs. He says he enjoys playing poker, and he told PokerStars he would be glad to play with PokerStars pros at various live events and represent their online poker site.

Here is what Mats Sundin says about his poker hobby:

“”I have always enjoyed playing poker, and partnering with PokerStars gives me the opportunity to challenge myself and explore the full potential of my game. Learning from and playing against some of the best poker players in the world won’t be easy but I believe the fighting spirit I’ve developed as a hockey pro will really help me at the tables.”

Sundin was really excited to represent PokerStars and that he finally got a chance to continue donating to charities, and he also stated, that all the money he will win with poker will be donated to charities.
