Peter “Zupp” Jepsen, a Danish poker professional, has joined the ranks of Betfair Poker’s “New Breed.”
Announced on Tuesday, Mr. Jepsen has inked an exclusive sponsorship deal with the betting exchange’s poker site. The “New Breed” lineup already includes professional poker players like Annette Obrestad, Sorel Mizzi and John Tabatabai.
