Former radio presenter, Kevin Martin, took up professional poker in 2014. Starting off by playing low-limit cash games in his native Calgary, he fell in love with the strategy side of the game and shortly transitioned from the studio to the felt to play poker full time.

Kevin has been a committed Twitch streamer since 2015 and was one of the first content creators on the platform. Although he admits to being an ‘amateur’ tournament player, his game is ever improving and he never fails to bring energy to his poker streams!

In 2015, he was cast on the reality TV series Big Brother, Canada. Although eliminated in 9th place, he was invited back to return to the Big Brother house in 2017 and after 69 days in isolation, the public crowned Kevin as their winner!

Kevin returned to the tables in 2018 and recorded a string of impressive live tournament results, boosting his bankroll and solidifying his standing as a respected live player. Follow Kevin’s Twitch streams as he builds upon this success, and demonstrates how much fun poker can be!
