Introducing our newest Black Members!

Not long ago, we announced which of our international members were close to getting the coveted Black Member status. Let's see who was the first of these to receive this rank.

We recently announced which international members were closest to getting Black Member status and now we are happy to announce that we have not one, but two new additions to this special group.

Until now, this honour only belonged to some PokerStrategists from the
German and Russian communities, but recently, the Portuguese community
joined this exclusive circle of players since
bakano achieved Black Member status.

Welcome to our new Black Members!

If this were a race, then we could say "Congratulations,
sgosgo!", as he was the first one to reach this
special status. He is also the first French community player to get
this rank!

The so-called "runner-up" is peterson506, who was behind by just a few hundred StrategyPoints, has also set a record, this time for the Polish community, by becoming their first Black Member.

Nevertheless, they both deserve congratulations, as they are now part
of our VIP group. Welcome to the elite of PokerStrategy.com!

We asked our new Black Members for a short statement, and this is what they had to say:

sgosgo: "It has never been a goal to reach the
Black Member rank, but now it's happening I am very happy about this.
I am really surprised by the enthusiasm within the French community
about my performance. I can't wait for the next Black Member party in
Munich, but I hope the weather won't be too frosty over there."

peterson506: "At the time I registered at
PokerStrategy.com, the Black Member status seemed to be something
impossible to reach. Basically I didn't count on getting it, especially
that no Polish member had it before. It is such a great feeling to
become a first Polish player who made it so far. I'd love to use all
Black Member privileges which come with the status. I hope I will be
able to meet other Black Members and people connected with
PokerStrategy.com at the party, so I will see you then!"

We will try and get both of them for more detailed interviews and publish these soon.
