Here’s what Anderson had to say about his Global Poker Eagle Cup Series victory:

“Global Poker’s Eagle Cup series is now finished! I am proud to say I streamed every day but one of the days which resulted in 77 hours streamed, 3 trophies won, GC player of the Series and having some of my best viewership days! I think Global Poker knocked it out of the park this series, they really strive to make poker fun and inclusive for everyone with amazing prizes to be won!”
