Team PokerStars gains WPT champion

By: Sarah Polson

Annand Ramdin, who prefers to go by the name "Victor," has joined the growing list of poker pros at PokerStars.com. He will represent PokerStars.com at tournaments around the world as well as play online at their site.

Annand Ramdin currently has more than $2 million in tournament winnings. Most of that came from his win at the World Poker Tour (WPT) Foxwoods Poker Classic in April where he won about $1.3 million. He's been playing in high-level tournaments since 2002.

He's also put his poker winnings to good use, donating time and money to his native country, Guyana. After winning the Foxwoods event, Ramdin donated $100,000 to the Kids First Fund Heart 2 Heart program in Guyana, helping send 14 children and four adults to India for heart treatments.

Ramdin joins several other poker pros on Team PokerStars.com including Isabelle Mercier, Joe Hachem, Chris Moneymaker, Wil Wheaton, John Duthie, Tom McEvoy, Lee Nelson and Greg Raymer. Among the Team PokerStars.com members, they have a number of World Series of Poker bracelets, including four championship titles.
