Danielle "dmoongirl" Moon-Andersen represents Full Tilt at WSOP Main Event

ONCHAN, Isle of Man -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Full Tilt Poker is proud to announce its sponsorship of Danielle “dmoongirl” Moon-Andersen into the World Series of Poker (WSOP*) No-Limit Hold’em Main Event.

Starting today, the Main Event features a buy-in of $10,000 and plays out over 10 days, with Danielle taking her seat on Day 1B this Sunday.

Danielle first gained the attention of the poker world as a result of her outstanding play at Full Tilt Poker, which led to her being dubbed the “winningest female cash game player in online poker history” by Bluff Magazine.

As one of the central protagonists of the newly released poker documentary Bet Raise Fold – which details the rise in popularity of online poker around the world – Danielle reveals her aspirations of achieving sponsorship with Full Tilt Poker as a means to support her young family. A strong performance at one of the biggest live poker tournaments in the world will no doubt enhance her already-glowing reputation within the poker community.

Danielle took a break from preparing for the Main Event to say, “The majority of my growth and development as a poker player has occurred on Full Tilt Poker. I'm honored, excited, and appreciative for the opportunity to represent them during the 2013 main event.”

Full Tilt Poker’s Senior Manager of Pro, Celebrity & VIP Marketing, Dustin Iannotti said, “Danielle’s story in Bet Raise Fold was equal parts gut-wrenching and inspiring. Her story of supporting her family through poker speaks to the modern generation of poker players. We are so happy to sponsor Danielle into the main event and feel it is a natural follow-up from her story detailed in the documentary."
