Interview w/ Champions Social General Manager Michael Prokop

Michael Prokop

PokerNews had the chance to chat with Michael Prokop, the General Manager at Champions Social. A lifetime baseball player – he even went to McNeese State University on a scholarship – Prokop began his career in the casino industry in 1999 pulling coins from slot machines. From there, he worked his way up through the Slot Department then moved over to Table Games before having stints in West Virginia, Mississippi, Nevada, and Colorado.

“I played a little poker when I became of age at the Capital Card Room is Sacramento, California, but I didn't become involved on the casino side until I was the Director of Games at the Atlantis in Reno, Nevada,” explained Prokop, whose wife and oldest son also work in gaming. “I was also responsible for Poker during my next stop as Director of Casino Operations at Mardi Gras & Golden Gulch Casinos in Black Hawk, Colorado.”

As for Champions Social, the room has been in development since late 2019 before celebrating its soft opening the weekend before the Coronavirus shutdown the US in March.

“I came on board on August 1 as Champions was looking for a General Manager, and my experience throughout operations and auditing made me a good fit for the role Champions was envisioning,” said Prokop. “I enjoy the excitement of building and growing a team during the early stages of development, and I desired to be a part of the growth of Champions Social.”

Since reopening, the venue has been on the lookout for a tournament series to partner with, and the fresh Lonestar Poker Series fits the bill.

“We appreciate the energy, excitement, and integrity that the Lonestar Poker Series is built on, and we were thrilled when we met and struck up a relationship up with Kim and Hayden around Christmas time. We began talking about how great of a fit the Lonestar Poker Series and Champions Social are together. We are all hoping this will be the first of many Series that we will team up together on.”

Starting today and running through January 31, the Lone Star Poker Series (LSPS) is holding its second-ever stop. The LSPS, the brainchild of poker couple Kim Stone and Hayden Fortini, is at Houston's Champions Social for a 16-event series culminating in a $600 buy-in, $200K GTD Main Event.
