Christophe De Meulder

Christophe De Meulder was introduced to poker by his twin brother Matthias, also a member of Team PokerStars Pro. He is from Antwerp in Belgium, and is a regular on the European scene and beyond. Christophe and his brother are used to the spotlight, as they hosted their own TV show when they were just 10 years old. They appeared on TV for three years interviewing Belgian celebrities, but since then studies and poker have taken over.

Christophe switched on to the game slightly later than his brother, but since then he’s managed to build his bankroll while studying Political Science at the University of Antwerp. He’s primarily a cash game player, and thanks to hard work and dedication he’s moved through the levels at PokerStars. He’s recently started to concentrate on tournaments and has found some good results. He’s taken down a $109 multi-table tournament at PokerStars for $11,699, proving he’s got what it takes in that competitive environment. As for live poker, Christophe plays the European circuit, and has a cash on the Italian Poker Tour, final tabling a €500 side event at IPT San Remo 4 for $6,686.

The young Belgian is an avid sports fan, and likes to get involved too. He plays basketball, football, tennis and squash on a regular basis, and believes all that physical activity helps him stay on top of his poker game. When he’s not at the poker felt or watching his favorite soccer team, Christophe likes spending time with friends and going out for dinner. He also loves to travel, which fits well with his life as a poker pro. He’s very proud to join the team and is looking forward to competing in all the top events and promoting poker in his home country of Belgium. Christophe De Meulder is a member of Team PokerStars Pro and you can find him at the tables playing with the User ID ‘chrisdm’.
