The inaugural Women’s Winter festival, sponsored by PokerStars, has entered the history books after attracting a record-breaking turnout to become the largest women’s poker event ever held outside of Las Vegas.

Held at the Hippodrome Casino in London, the festival saw 271 female players enter the $400 buy-in Main Event, which had a £100,000 guaranteed prize pool, to cement its place in history. Argentinian poker pro Maria Lampropulos won the Main Event for a £20,000 top prize and the prestigious Pokerstars trophy.

With approximately only 3% of tournament fields comprising women, the Women’s Winter Festival was designed to open doors for more women to engage confidently at higher levels of play in a competitive yet supportive environment. The festival’s success underscores a broader movement to elevate female participation in poker.

Founder of the festival and PokerStars Ambassador Kerryjane Craigie said: “This event was a celebration of women, and about championing and empowering women in poker. I’m so pleased that we have created this amazing community event that was accessible for everyone to come and have a go and was filled with fun, laughter, and fantastic poker. Thank you to everyone who joined us, I’m excited to see what’s ahead.”

In addition to the Main Event, the Women’s Winter Festival featured PokerStars first-ever Women’s High Roller event and the unique 50/50 event, which saw an equal field of female and male players take to the felt.

PokerStars Ambassador Jennifer Shahade played in the 50/50 event and said: “The innovative 50/50 event, with half women and half men was the most fun I’ve ever had at a poker tourney, with toasts, singing and belly laughs.”

Phantum Introduces High-End Mousepads with Collectible Packaging and Parisian Design Roots

Bridging the gap between functional hardware and considered design, Phantum debuts its first line of high-performance mousepads. The collection is built for users who demand precision but won’t compromise on aesthetics. Developed in Paris by founders Amine G. and Victor B., the mousepads combine minimalist design with carefully selected materials and collectible elements, positioning the product as a functional tool and a design object.

Created for gamers and digital creatives, Phantum’s mousepads emphasize tactile performance while remaining visually restrained. The surfaces are crafted using Japanese Poron and advanced fabrics chosen for their durability, responsiveness, and sensory qualities. Each product is designed to enhance, not distract from, the overall composition of a desk setup.

The company’s visual language draws on space, transparency, and disappearance themes, an intentional move to create objects that integrate flawlessly into a work or play environment. “Every detail reflects our DNA: clean, sharp, and futuristic,” said co-founder Amine G., whose tech-focused YouTube channel, MRG TECH, has built a following of over 200,000 subscribers. “We create tools that disappear under the hand but leave a lasting impression through design, feel, and finish.”

Phantum’s founders launched the brand after finding few products that met their standards for both performance and design integrity. The debut line is only the beginning: the team is developing glass mousepads and matching performance sleeves, with plans to expand into a broader ecosystem of desk essentials. Each new release will continue to feature collectible packaging designed to add narrative value rather than act as decoration.

Though recently launched, Phantum is already drawing attention beyond France, particularly in Latin America, where design-conscious gamers have begun to integrate the mousepads into their setups. The first collection is now available on phantum.co, with new formats and accessories to follow.
