Bo Wänghammar joins PokerStars Casino; Poker Central hiring-not firing

Rational Group has hired Bo Wänghammar to take care of business at PokerStars Casino, and Poker Central has taken on a raft of new hires including reigning Global Poker Index European Poker Award winner Remko Rinkema.

Rational Group is looking to Bo Wänghammar to turn PokerStars Casino into a world beater.

The parent company of PokerStars hired Wänghammar to fill in the position of Managing Director of PokerStars Casino. He will take control of full business responsibilities and reports directly to Amaya CEO, Rafi Ashkenazi.

Educated at the University of Pennsylvania where he became a genius in the art of finance, marketing and statistics, Wänghammar – who sounds like a pretty cool Dungeons and Dragons character – joins the Red Spade from the online gambling company Mr Green where he served as both CEO and Business Development Director.
