EvenBet Gaming signs up as sponsor of SiGMA Poker Tour 2025

EvenBet Gaming, a developer of online poker platforms, has announced a sponsorship agreement covering the 2025 SiGMA Poker Tour, according to a release issued on 14th March 2025.

The deal spans both legs of the tour, held in Brazil from 9 to 14 April and in Malta from 3 to 7 September. The main event carries a guaranteed prize pool of $250,000.

Satellite tournaments and VIP packages

As part of the arrangement, EvenBet will allow partner poker networks to run online satellite tournaments feeding into the live events, with VIP packages sold alongside the main tour. For the Brazilian leg, satellites will run on EvenBet’s LatPoker network, which serves multiple countries across South and Latin America.

VIP packages include a buy-in for the main event, five nights of accommodation, a meet and greet with SiGMA ambassadors, and additional entertainment access.

Ambassador deal with Bianca Lira

EvenBet is also sponsoring Brazilian professional player Bianca Lira, who has built a track record in online poker over more than a decade and will compete at the tour as both a player and company ambassador.

Dmitry Starostenkov, chief executive of EvenBet Gaming, said the sponsorship reflected the company’s aim to strengthen ties between online and live poker while widening access to the game through digital platforms.

Alexandra Voronetskaya, chief marketing officer at EvenBet Gaming, pointed to the low representation of women among top poker players and said backing players such as Lira was intended to support greater inclusivity in the sport.

Lira said she was looking forward to competing on the tour with EvenBet’s backing.
