Oops! I forgot to add the link to the article in the first post - it is added now to read more about it all.

But, Peter is a poker dealer at The Parkwest Casino 580, Livermore, California (near San Francisco and San Jose)

I did a quick search as to Alexandre Vuilleumier's possible sponsorship but was unable to find much on him. Therefore, I have no idea what the REPLAY on his hoodie belongs to.

Maybe the hoodie is Replay Jeans.
But that's just a tip.
A cool brand in Europe, but not in the US or canada?
