Pokerstars is now the official sponsor of the USCL.
---------------------------------------------
by USCL Commissioner IM Greg Shahade

It was good news for all 10 cities in the USCL as Pokerstars
announced that they will become the official league sponsor. All league
teams will receive a stipend for the season to help them pay their top
players with the exception of the two expansion teams, as teams must be
part of
the USCL for 2 seasons before they receive sponsorship from the league.
Pokerstars has maintained a history of excellence in the poker
world with the 2003 and 2004 World Series of Poker Champions
having qualified from their poker site. They continue this excellence
by
offering some of the biggest tournaments and prize funds on the
Internet along with what is commonly thought of as the best software
and customer service for any online poker room.
It's my great pleasure to announce Pokerstars as the league
sponsor, and I hope that the relationship is a long and prosperous one
for both parties.
