Alex AJKHoosier1 Kamberis is the newest member of the DoylesRoom Brunson 10, the fifth pro in the site’s stable of young guns. Kamberis is a Monthly PLB titleholder and Triple Crown winner here on PocketFives.com and has banked more than $4 million throughout his career. At the end of 2008, Kamberis sat perched atop the CardPlayer Online Player of the Year standings and he’s been a contributor to the PocketFives.com community ever since he signed up an account four years ago. DoylesRoom happily accepts players from the United States.

Site namesake Doyle Brunson (pictured at left) is elated to be bringing Kamberis into the Brunson 10. In a press release distributed by DoylesRoom, the ten-time World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner lauded, “I’m really excited that Alex has decided to come onboard. He’s a real class act, just a real nice kid, and he’s the type of player that makes us all look forward to the next generation of poker players.” Kamberis played in the DoylesRoom weekly Bounty tournament in 2008 as a featured pro.
Kamberis has won a trio of Triple Crowns, two of which came in September 2007. He also took one down ten months later in July 2008. That year, he finished third in the PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) Main Event for a colossal $782,000 after a five-way chop. Two months prior, he made waves on Full Tilt Poker after finishing second in the site’s $1 Million Guaranteed for $135,000. According to DoylesRoom, Kamberis earned $1.5 million online in 2008 alone.

Other top-tier scores by the newest member of the Brunson 10 include wins in the Absolute Poker $150,000 Guaranteed for $37,000, the PokerStars $250,000 Guaranteed Sunday Rebuy for $75,000, and the PokerStars Super Tuesday for $66,000. He’s authored several front-page strategy articles on PocketFives.com.

A thread in Poker Discussion created by Irish poker player Donegal Rules was filled with congratulatory remarks. The original poster bluntly noted, “Not surprised by this, was bound to happen sooner than later. Well done.” Texan MasturNate added, “hes real real good.”

His success on the virtual felts has led to several solid cashes in the live poker arena. Kamberis took 78th in January’s PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event for $28,000. In December 2007, the new DoylesRoom pro finished 30th in the World Poker Tour’s (WPT) Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic for $57,000. He also cashed in a $5,000 No Limit Hold’em event during the 2008 WSOP.

Other members of the Brunson 10 include PocketFives.com members Chris moorman1 Moorman (pictured at left), Amit amak316 Makhija, Zachary CrazyZachary Clark, and Dani ansky451 Stern. Alec traheho Torelli was formerly the fifth member of the group before parting ways with DoylesRoom to sign with Victory Poker. A sixth Brunson 10 member will likely be announced in the near future.
