Sashcha Walter joins Team PKR Pro

LONDON, England -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- PKR is proud to welcome Sascha 'locodice' Walter to Team PKR Pro as the first German signing for the next-generation poker room.

The 25 year old from Stuttgart, Germany started his poker career at PKR in April 2007 playing Sit & Go's where he quickly worked his way up the buy-in levels. He soon found his niche at the cash tables where he now plays $2/$4 and $3/$6 No Limit Hold'em and $1/$2, £2/$4 Pot Limit Omaha.

Walter finished his university degree earlier this year and has been playing as a full-time pro ever since. With his trademark composed demeanour at the table, coupled with a steely determination, Walter makes the most successful German cash player on PKR to date.

Sascha Walter commented, "It's a great honour to be selected as the newest member of Team PKR Pro; I look forward to showcase my skills in live events such as the EPT Berlin and the WSOP representing PKR and the growing German community."

When taking time off poker, Walter can be found on the football field, playing video games and parting with friends.

PKR's Marketing Director, Simon Prodger adds, "It's fantastic to welcome another member to PKR Team Pro. We have a large German community and we look forward to Sascha representing them at the tables."
