InterPoker.com, the home of aquatic, arctic and airborne poker excitement, announced today the signing of poker professional Jordan Morgan, one of the most fearless, dangerous young players in professional poker. Having made a name for himself in the online poker community with his calculating play, Morgan is ranked in the top ten worldwide for online play and has one of the largest online followings of any poker professional in the world.
"Jordan is one of the best players of his generation -- he bets wisely, and plays very aggressively when the odds are in his favor," said InterPoker.com spokesperson Peter Marcus. "Jordan is the perfect addition to the InterPoker.com Extreme Team, as he is young, energetic and has a wonderful rapport with the online poker community."
Having unofficially started his poker career at the age of 18 as an engineering student at the University of Oklahoma, in nickel and dime games with friends, Jordan learned that he had a knack for games of strategy. After a few years of college, Jordan realized he wanted to dedicate more time to poker, and less time to physics and equations. After regularly leaving victorious from neighborhood private poker games, a friend noticed Jordan's ability to dominate the competition and suggested he test his luck in a professional tournament. Within two years, Jordan had made himself a household name within the community and collected purses upward of $50,000.
Although Jordan began his poker career exclusively online, his focused play and cool demeanor have produced the same winning results in live tournaments. After several top finishes on the professional poker circuit, Jordan blew away his competitors at the 2006 World Series of Poker with over $100,000 in prize winnings, thus establishing himself as a world-class tournament player.
"I am delighted to be part of one of the most respected online poker rooms in the world, especially since most of my success has come within the online world," said Morgan. "With InterPoker, it is apparent that they truly care about providing players with a safe, exciting and, above all, genuine poker experience on the web, and I am extremely pleased to be associated with them."
With the support of wife Casey and two English Bulldogs Bud and Zuzu, Jordan plans to move up the professional poker ladder with his purses acting as his only source of income. With the help of the InterPoker Extreme Team and his mentor and fellow team member Scott Fischman, Jordan is destined for the professional poker elite.
