Hachem, First poker player to sign with a major management group.

This is pretty major news, not sure if it should be posted here or the NVG forum but...


From ESPN

Joe Hachem, the 2005 World Series of Poker champion, will now join the ranks of Eminem, Neil Simon and Michelle Wie.

That's because the 39-year-old from Melbourne, Australia, has signed with the William Morris Agency, a 107-year-old management firm that also represents sports stars, musicians, actors and directors.
