Betfair Poker has struck a deal with Thomas �Buzzer� Bhil, which formalises his position as one of Team Betfair�s official sponsored professional poker players.

Buzzer, who is based in Frankfurt, joins Ben �Milky Bar Kid� Grundy and Bengt Sonnert in representing Betfair at major tournaments. The three pros will also play important roles in the education of new Betfair Poker players.

�Buzzer is a very strong player with some excellent tournament results,� said head of poker, Ben Fried. �In single table tournaments he is one of the toughest players in the world. He will be responsible for passing on his knowledge to our user base.�

Betfair Poker is planning to use its professional players in educational videos that will be downloadable from its website. Ben Grundy will give his expert insights into Omaha whilst Bengt Sonnert is a high-stakes limit cash game specialist and Buzzer will give lessons on single table tournament play.

'I�m pleased we have expanded our existing friendship into official sponsorship,� said Buzzer. �Betfair Poker is where I first learned and later improved my game, and has always been my poker home. I am looking forward to a longstanding relationship.�
