Global Poker League teams London Royals, and Rome Emperors have selected their wildcard entries, and both Liv Boeree and Max Pescatori will represent their franchises.

Yesterday, we announced the full line-ups for the Moscow Wolverines and Paris Aviators and today we can do likewise for the London Royals and Rome Emperors.

Let’s begin with one of the strongest sides in the Global Poker League (GPL). London Royals Team Manager Liv Boeree emerged from Draft Day with one of the biggest smiles in the room. Many people’s early favorites have just gotten much stronger after Boeree announced on Twitter that Sam Trickett will be joining her franchise.

Trickett is an excellent choice. He is Europe’s winningest live tournament player with earnings exceeding $20m, and he is versatile having competed against the very best players in the world in both cash games and tournaments.
