Luske has won the European Poker Awards Player of the year in both 2001 and 2004.

Jason Mercier has also joined the team having quite a few cashes at European Poker Tour events, including his win at the EPT San Remo in Season 4. After that he was the EPT London’s High Roller Event after taking down a final table that included David Benyamine, Scotty Nguyen, John Juanda and Isabelle Mercier. He recently won a WSOP bracelet in the $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha event.
