Kenna will host a special "Kenna's Korner" table on Thursday evenings at
SunPoker.com at 9:00 PM (schedule permitting), where members of "Team
SunPoker" (players that have qualified for any land based event through
SunPoker.com) will be able to play and chat with Kenna to pick his brain as to
how to improve their game.
In addition to his role as captain of "Team SunPoker," Kenna will represent
SunPoker in tournament play. Kenna will proudly wear the SunPoker logo, and a
percentage of his winnings will be donated, along with a matching sum from
SunPoker, to selected charities.
"Kenna is the perfect choice to be our poker ambassador," says Adam Smirnis,
Poker Room Manager, SunPoker.com. "His knowledge and passion for the game,
coupled with a personality that has made him a huge fan favourite, will enable
Kenna to truly help SunPoker players and all fans of the game understand and
play poker like a professional."
Kenna has emerged as one of the top players in the world right now, currently
ranked second in the Bluff Magazine's "Who's Hot Power Rankings." Winning over
two million dollars in major tournaments around the world, Kenna is considered
one of the top pros on the Professional Poker Tour today. Equally as important,
Kenna is recognized as one of the most approachable and well-liked players in
the world.
"It has always been my desire to find a way to give back to the game that has
been so good to me," says James. "I was never one to look for and take advantage
of the weaker "fish" in the game, but rather I always looked to elevate my game
by playing against the best. SunPoker's commitment to teaching the game, as well
providing one of the best places on the Internet to learn, play and win, makes
us an ideal team."
SunPoker.com is currently in the midst of a year-long, nationwide tour to
teach America how to play poker like the pros. Featuring a fully customized RV
with a live poker room, SunPoker is on a mission to teach America how to play
and win at poker. Players will have a chance to improve their poker skills and
possibly win a seat at the 2006 World Series of Poker. As part of his role as
captain of "Team SunPoker," Kenna will make occasional appearances at tour stops
to meet fans and help them better learn the game.
