Lately a lot of rumors have been circulating on the web that PokerStars is about to sign a huge a sports star to its Team PokerStars. One of the hottest candidate's so far is the old heavy weight champion Mike Tyson. Whether or not Mike Tyson is a good poker player, we will have to wait and see (if he's the one that PokerStars will sign).
The rumors about Mike Tyson to become the new Team PokerSt[...] Read more » Mike Tyson's new career
Dunotra: Mobster Status: R.I.P. (for 7 more days).
Was that really neccessary ?
It's ok, that's part of his plan. Let's see when he returns if he goes "two for two" on the mob draw. Last time he got banned the lucky SOB won it. At least he is doing a good job at maintaining his bad boy image.

I don't think that would be a good decision by pokerstars to hire Mike Tyson, I think people are going to take a laugh about this person playing poker, but if he plays very good then he will gain some respect.
This is not the time or place to be making racist slurs, and the fact that u did donutra is really dumb to say the least and I think a huge appology to the community is in order. prominent people have been fired and tarnished for less so why are u any different. Anyways, Mike Tyson does not have the skills needed to be playing poker at that high of a level for long so I have to believe that pokerstars would not consider him, Don Cheadle yes, Mike Tyson no. Unless they need bodyguard for their real pros.

No surly not he would just get abused like all the time, the chat box would be going crazy he would have to tern it off. Everyone would want a piece of him. that could be a good tac-tic for him. but all in all i dont think Mike Tyson would just be a gimmic for them to use as a puppet , lets face it he's not ever been the sharpest tool in the box nor the prettyest of the bunch hardly the face of poker..lol

mike tyson and poker, thats even more weird than signing boris becker (who showed his donkeystyle on german tv), i mean he never seemed to be a smart person i don't believe he is good at poker. if it helps to bring fish to the tables its good, but otherwise ps should use the money in a better way

looks like a very weird poker rumor, most probably its false don't see pokerstars so desperate to sign someone like him just for the sake of publicity, think they have enough already
