PokerGO®, the world’s largest poker content company, today announced a partnership with Guaranteed Rate, one of America’s top five retail mortgage lenders, that sees Guaranteed Rate become the presenting sponsor of the PokerGO Tour™.

“Guaranteed Rate is proud to partner with the PokerGO Tour featuring some of the best poker players in the world,” said Guaranteed Rate Chief Marketing Officer Steve Moffat. “And having the Player of the Year’s name engraved on the Guaranteed Rate Cup will be an incredible way to connect our brand to a game so many millions around the world play and love.”

Currently in its inaugural season, the PokerGO Tour presented by Guaranteed Rate strives to celebrate the game’s elite professional players as they compete within a ranking system similar to the world’s most renowned professional sports.
