Melbourne Victory players will continue their championship celebrations by visiting Las Vegas next week. And they'll have an Aussie poker champion as their guide.

“A few of us will kick on to Vegas after our trip to Hawaii,” says Victory keeper Michael Theoklitos. “In Vegas, Joe Hachem has promised to show us around. He's a fan of Victory having seen one of our finals games.”

Hashem was crowned world series of poker champion in 2005, winning $10 million

Poker has become a popular pastime this season with the Victory players when they travel interstate in the A-League.
