Commedian Kevin Hart Partners with PokerStars

“I just forced myself into a relationship with PokerStars,” comedian Kevin Hart deadpanned to start his short – and hilarious – press conference today at the PokerStars Championship Monte Carlo.

Well, it’s been a minute since PokerStars wow’d me with a marketing move, but letting go of football stars Neymar and Ronaldo an ambassadors is a start. The Live Poker scene got so serious that it became meh and quite a yawn to play in the last few years. I’m personally very excited to perhaps be luckily enough to get a seat draw at the same table as Kevin Hart that I’m willing to go play a few Main Events again. Would be positive EV in some ways for the sake of the game and for fun!

“I’m already so good, I can make Day 2!”

I’m a big deal,” Hart said jokingly. “I mean a really big deal.

“When players sit next to me with their headphones on, I wonder how it’s not a big deal for them. And they need to understand that I can’t just let them not talk to me.

“You will talk to me if you sit at my table.”

“Kevin sure brings a new presence to the table,” added Negreanu. “A new vibe that says you can play a serious game and still have fun.”

“I’ve been following him for a while. He’s not a guy who does things halfway.”

Still, Hart refuses to get any coaching.

“For what?” Hart cried out. “I’m not going to read any books. There’ll be no coaching, no training, no nothing. I will figure out the game by myself.”

I love Kevin Hart playing poker and switching up the scene and making it lighter. If you know poker and the scene, you can’t help but laugh. What do you think? Is he good for the game?
