Jason Alexander, the comic actor famed for his portrayal of George Costanza in "Seinfeld" and a veteran of several recent high-profile poker events, has joined PokerStars' lineup of celebrity endorsers. Alexander will play online under the screen name "J. Alexander" and will don Stars gear for appearances at major events, including the 2009 World Series of Poker.
Actor Jason Alexander - best known as the not-so-lovable loser George Costanza on the award-winning sitcom Seinfeld - recently signed an exclusive sponsorship agreement with PokerStars.
The agreement means Alexander now represents PokerStars as a brand ambassador and will play for the online poker company in a variety of online and live poker tournaments, including the 2009 World Series of Poker.
"Poker Stars has very graciously asked me to sign on as one of their official players," says Alexander. "I am very flattered and happy to be playing for a real quality site and with the kind of professionals that remind me every day how truly mediocre I am at this game. But I'm learning. And now I can learn from some of the best."
Alexander joins National Hockey League (NHL) player Mats Sundin, former Wimbledon champion Boris Becker and Cy Young Award winner Orel Hershiser on the roster of PokerStars celebrities.
