He is the co-founder and former co-owner of the online gambling company PokerStars, which was sold in 2014 to Amaya Gaming for $4.9 billion.[3] Early lifeMark Scheinberg was born in Israel in 1973, moving to Toronto, Ontario, Canada at the age of 13 with his family.[1] They settled in the town of Richmond Hill in the 1980s.[2] CareerIn 2001 Scheinberg founded PokerStars with his father Isai Scheinberg, a computer programmer.[1][7] During his tenure as CEO, PokerStars became the world’s largest online poker business and host to the world’s largest online tournament series,[3] acquiring the Full Tilt Poker brand in 2012.[4] In August 2014,[5] Oldford Group Ltd,[6] the PokerStars parent company, was acquired by the Canadian publicly listed company Amaya Gaming Group for $4.9 billion. Upon completion of the sale, Scheinberg exited the PokerStars group.[7] According to Forbes, Scheinberg has a net worth of $4.8 billion as of June 2018.[1] As of May 2017, Scheinberg was the richest person on the Isle of Man.[8] Via his investment company Mohari Hospitality,[9] in early 2017 Scheinberg became a major investor in Centro Canalejas Madrid, a real estate project in Madrid, Spain.[10] Mohari purchased a 50% stake in the Centro for €225 million from the Grupo OHL subsidiary OHL Desarrollos and the industrial group Villa Mir, who both also retained stakes.[11] With an opening date set for 2019,[9] the project involves the restoration of seven historic[1] adjacent buildings[10] for residential, hotel and commercial use. With a large amount of retail space, the complex will also house the first Four Seasons hotel in Spain,[9] and create 4,800 positions.[12] In September 2017, a Canadian subsidiary of Mohari Hospitality acquired the Thompson Toronto hotel in downtown Toronto, Ontario.[13] The "boutique" hotel[14] has 105 rooms, event space, and restaurants and lounges.[15] Personal lifeScheinberg is single and lives in the Isle of Man.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web|title=Mark Scheinberg|url=https://www.forbes.com/profile/mark-scheinberg/|website=Forbes|accessdate=7 March 2017}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Scheinberg, Mark}}2. ^{{cite news|last1=Freeze|first1=Colin|title=A look at the mysterious Canadian founder of PokerStars|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/a-look-at-the-mysterious-canadian-founder-of-pokerstars/article4171690/|accessdate=18 January 2015|work=The Globe and Mail|date=22 April 2011}} 3. ^[https://www.forbes.com/2010/02/10/internet-gambling-pokerstars-business-beltway-pokerstars.html#48c5db0575ba "PokerStars: Online Gambling's Quiet Giant"], Forbes, Nathan Vardi, February 10, 2010 4. ^[https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2012-07-31/pokerstars-strikes-u-dot-s-dot-deal-to-buy-full-tilt-poker "PokerStars Strikes U.S. Deal to Buy Full Tilt Poker"], Bloomberg, Caroline Winter, July 31, 2012 5. ^[https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/amaya-completes-acquisition-of-pokerstars-and-full-tilt-poker-515194841.html "Amaya Completes Acquisition of Pokerstars and Full Tilt Poker"], August 1, 2014, press release 6. ^[https://www.forbes.com/sites/darrenheitner/2014/06/19/how-a-4-9-billion-purchase-of-pokerstars-could-change-online-poker-in-america/#78cc4821404b "How A $4.9 Billion Purchase Of PokerStars Could Change Online Poker In America"], Forbes, Darren Heitner, June 19, 2014 7. ^1 {{cite news|last1=Palmeri|first1=Christopher|title=PokerStars’ Scheinberg Becomes Billionaire on Sale to Amaya|url=https://www.bloomberg.com/news/2014-06-13/pokerstars-scheinberg-becomes-billionaire-on-sale-to-amaya-1-.html|accessdate=18 January 2015|work=Bloomberg|date=13 June 2014}} 8. ^{{cite news|title=Scheinberg now richest on the island|url=http://www.iomtoday.co.im/article.cfm?id=33459&headline=Scheinberg%20now%20richest%20on%20the%20island§ionIs=news&searchyear=2017|accessdate=24 May 2017|work=IOM Today|date=5 May 2017}} 9. ^1 2 "PokerStars Founder Mark Scheinberg’s Madrid Hotel Complex to Open Doors in 2019", Casino News Daily, November 7, 2017 10. ^1 2 {{cite news|title=PokerStars Founder Mark Scheinberg Invests in Spain’s Real Estate Market|url=http://www.casinonewsdaily.com/2017/05/17/pokerstars-founder-mark-scheinberg-invests-spains-real-estate-market/|accessdate=24 May 2017|work=Casino News Daily|date=17 May 2017}} 11. ^OHL Desarrollows and GVM Sell a 50 Percent Stake in Centro Canalejas Madrid to the Businessman Mark Scheinberg, OHL, February 9, 2017 12. ^[https://iberian.property/news/centro-canalejas-madrid-will-open-its-doors-at-the/ Centro Canalejas Madrid Will Open Its Doors at the Beginning of 2019], Iberian Property, November 10, 2017 13. ^"Mohari Canada Inc. purchases Thompson Hotel", Lexpert Magazine, August 25, 2017 14. ^"Thompson Hotels", Thompson Toronto 15. ^[https://www.hotelbusiness.com/thompson-toronto-sale-arranged-by-jll/ "Thompson Toronto Sale Arranged by JLL"], Hotel Business, September 13, 2017 12 : PokerStars|1973 births|Living people|Israeli businesspeople|Israeli billionaires|Israeli emigrants to Canada|Israeli Jews|Canadian businesspeople|Canadian billionaires|Canadian Jews|People from Richmond Hill, Ontario|21st-century Manx people |
