PokerStars Welcomes Raúl Mestre as New Team Pro


PokerStars has officially announced the signing of Raúl Mestre as their newest Team Pro. This move comes as part of PokerStars' strategy to enhance their team of ambassadors for 2026, following the recent additions of Javier Rodríguez 'Javitxu' and David Tous 'Pourvu'.

Raúl Mestre, a valenciano, is a well-known figure in the Spanish poker community. He is recognized as a pioneer of high stakes poker in Spain and has significantly contributed to the professionalization of the game. Mestre's educational efforts culminated in the founding of EducaPoker, a school that has set the standard for professionalizing poker.

Mestre's legacy includes helping hundreds of players transition from hobbyists to professionals. His educational contributions have been pivotal in the growth and development of the poker community. Mestre will represent PokerStars in major tournaments around the world, including the European Poker Tour and PokerStars Open. His involvement with PokerStars began in 2025, where he appeared in content like Golden Button and Kadabra.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
