Table Of Contents
The partnership between PokerStars and Oracle Red Bull Racing (ORBR) has been a roaring success on the track and on the felt since the two brands joined forces. Several poker players worldwide have experienced once-in-a-lifetime events thanks to the Red Spade Pass, which has been confirmed to return for a second year.
The Red Spade Passes will be available to win across the PokerStars universe at different points of the season between May and October, with the first up for grabs via an easy-to-enter and free-to-play online casino game, ‘Spin of the Day’, which runs until July 10, 2023.
And as the 2023 Formula One season cranks up, PokerStars and ORBR are providing a unique content series called Between the Lines, which uncovers and explores the parallels between motorsport and poker at the highest level.
Christian Horner, Team Principal and CEO of Oracle Red Bull Racing, said, “We loved being part of this content series developed by PokerStars. Strategy sits at the heart of everything that we do here at Oracle Red Bull Racing, just as it does at the poker table. The series really drove home the synergies between the two sports."

Episode 1 – Fortune Favors the Brave
The first of four episodes of Between the Lines has been released, and you can watch the pilot below. Episode 1, titled Fortune Favors the Brave, looks back at the parallels between the performances by F1 driver Sergio Perez and poker superstar Hossein Ensan from the 2022 Monte Carlo Grand Prix and the 2015 EPT Prague Main Event respectively.
Perez and Ensan wowed spectators and viewers with their boldness and fearlessness in their respective fields, which took their opponents by surprise, given the dynamics and obstacles they both faced.
The duo would go on to seal out the victories both on the track and the felt, much to the surprise of those watching.
Rebecca McAdam Willetts, Director of Partnerships & PR at PokerStars, said, “Developing the Between the Lines series with the support of Oracle Red Bull Racing has given us such a brilliant opportunity to look back at some of the most pivotal moments in one of the teams’ most successful seasons, as well as some of the most exciting moments in our live event history, and really dig into the skills and strategies that can be applied wherever mental dexterity is necessary and competition is fierce. Alongside creating major memories through our Red Spade Pass, we’re looking forward to giving fans additional opportunities to get under the hood this season with even more content, promotions, experiences, and rewards.”
