The world's biggest poker site and well-known Scandinavian poker pros Johnny Lodden (Norway) and Theo Jorgensen (Denmark) are no longer working together.
Lodden, who frequently played under the alias "bad_ip" on Prima Network's high-stakes cash game tables around the poker boom, is rumoured to have parted ways with PokerStars earlier this year and Jorgensen, a WPT champion with close to $4 million in live tournament winnings, announced the "break-up" on Facebook earlier this week.
I think that most of these big poker firms will be parting ways with these 'ambassadors'. I think that it is an unnecessary expense and they could definitely do without them
all seem to be trying to get sporting celebrities - so they can get some fresh blood at the tables to keep the poker boom going for the regulars and companies
well after all they are in there just to attract new players from certain markets and to do so they must be "fresh"- that is relevant nowadays, for example just coming from a new big win, or signed a new contract or is a hot celebrity at the moment, or just was someone- everyone has some sort of fan base, this fan base can be exploited and then move over celebrity for another celebrity.
I must admit that I never heard about this two guys!dont know anything about them,so cant know what are reasons for this!maybe its my mistake,but at least I admit that dont know a single thing!who know what are reasons for this!maybe they dont want to pay them anymore or just see that poker stars dont have benefites from them!but on other side I dont like that poker sites sign lot of sports man either!they dont have anything with poker!

They have to realize at some point the 'boom' is over for now and stop paying all the 'musicians' who are not providing anything of value to the 'music'... Also, eff Amaya anyway for buying up three quarters of the whole market and making their flagship site less desirable day by day.
They are cutting unnecessary losses. About time for this to happen. They have made so many changes in poker itself to get more money, so why keep paying for a front window?
PokerStars has become so famous and popular that he does not need people who already represent the poker room .. of course this room stopped paying money to representatives of ... it is no longer necessary ..
I do not know any of them, this of course doesn't say much since I do not know probably 99% of poker players, i just play poker at some poker room and that's it, not care who those ambassadors are. I think mamy people also do not onow them or know them just by using Google, so not they but Google knows those ambassadors
