Ultimate Poker, an online poker room under development by Station Casinos and UFC founders Lorenzo and Frank Fertitta, has announced Antonio Esfandiari as its new brand ambassador. 

Esfandiari became the biggest poker money earner of all time following his $18 million win last year in the $1 million buy-in “Big One for One Drop.”

“We’re thrilled to have Antonio Esfandiari represent our company,” Ultimate Poker Chairman Tom Breitling said in a news release. “Antonio is the ultimate champion and modern poker player. He brings the gaming lifestyle to the online arena with his work-hard, play-hard attitude.”

Ultimate Poker hopes to launch real money poker by year’s end.
