You can win a Maradona jersey in a poker tournament

Football jerseys associated with the name of Diego Armando Maradona are true relics, not only for football enthusiasts but also for those who recognize the greatness and sacred aura of his personality. Maradona can connect seemingly incompatible spheres of interest, as demonstrated by the recent initiative taken by GGPoker, the world's largest online poker room, which has announced an exclusive tournament for South America. Up for grabs is a Napoli jersey autographed and worn by Maradona and a guaranteed prize pool of €1986: the choice of this amount is not random; it commemorates the year when the Argentine National Team, with Maradona as captain and leader, won its second World Cup.

Regarding the upcoming poker event, Juan Carreño, marketing manager of GGPoker, stated, "We are excited to offer our players the opportunity to win a piece of football history. It is a way to thank our community and add excitement to our game catalog." The tournament is scheduled to start on February 28 and will be preceded by three qualifying freerolls on the dates of February 7, 14, and 21, all accessible to amateur players. Those unable to participate in the freerolls can pay an entry fee of €10. The jersey up for grabs is an away version in white from the 1988/1989 season, iconic for featuring the sponsor Mars, which accompanied the Neapolitan club from 1988 to 1991. The jersey also comes with a certificate of authenticity issued by the Museo di San Siro, attesting that the jersey was actually worn and personally autographed by El Pibe de Oro.
