Jonathan Duhamel splits with PokerStars
PokerStars has severed ties with yet another sponsored player and WSOP Main Event champion, Jonathan Duhamel is no longer part of Team PokerStars Pro.
PokerStars started restructuring its Pro Team last year. They have started to sign players who are more marketable (popular on Twitch/YouTube for example) and stopped renewing the contracts of players who have impressive results at the tables, but are not very marketable.
In the past year, Humberto Brenes, Angel Guillen, José "Nacho" Barbero, 2009 WSOP Main Event champion Joe Cada, Marcel Luske and Alex Kravchenko each split with PokerStars.
The latest player to leave was 2010 WSOP Main Event champion Jonathan Duhamel. Duhamel played without a PokerStars patch at the WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown and the news were confirmed by PokerStars not much later, his bio has been removed from the website.
Duhamel became a Team PokerStars Pro in 2011 and continued to bring impressive results at the tables. He won the EPT Deauville High Roller in 2011, made three final tables at the 2012 PCA, including a cash in the High Roller and the Super High Roller and winning the 8-Max event (which he won once again this year) and he final tabled the WSOP Poker Players Championship in 2013, he has total live tournament earnings of $12.786.360.
With the departure of Joe Cada and Duhamel, the only WSOP Main Event champ in the PokerStars Pro Team is Chris Moneymaker.
