Cristiano Ronaldo and Dwayne Wade pull off amazing trick shots in new ads
Waking up is easy -- at least if you're Cristiano Ronaldo and Dwayne Wayde.
The two athletes showed off their athletic prowess in a new ad campaign for PokerStars, an online poker site, Thursday.
From inside a bedroom with photos of himself as a child and a blanket bearing his own name, Real Madrid player Ronaldo reveals his early morning football skills. On cue in five seconds after his alarm clock rings, a ball comes flying toward his bed.

Ronaldo juggles the ball for 10 seconds before kicking it against the wall. The ball escapes from his bedroom and bounces into the practice goal outside on his porch.
"Raise it," Ronaldo says in reference to the site PokerStars is using for the campaign.
Ronaldo shared his early morning routine at 2:32 a.m. ET Thursday, tagging Chicago Bulls player Dwayne Wayde in the tweet.

Nearly twelve hours later, Wade attempted to one-up his fellow athlete. The basketball player woke up to his alarm, kept his sleep mask on, grabbed a small basketball from his floor and proceeded to score a basket, backwards in the small hoop on his wall.
"Raise it," Wade said, holding up his index finger and crowning himself the champion.
