Instagram playboy and Ignite International Ltd. CEO Dan Bilzerian has officially joined GGPoker as a brand ambassador in a move to bring star-studded popularity to one of the world's biggest online poker platforms.

“Dan joining Team GGPoker is a huge win! No one in poker has a bigger reach than Dan,” said Daniel Negreanu, GGPoker ambassador. “He has won millions in cash games and isn’t afraid to get into the mix against the sharks in the high-stakes streets at GGPoker!”

On Dec. 7 GGPoker will host an online birthday event for Bilzerian in the form of a $100,000 Freeroll poker tournament. The event will be open to all GGPoker players who sign up with the code BLITZ40 and have a minimum of $10 in their account.

The winner is slated to receive at least $10,000 as a final prize as well as a $3,000 buy-in to participate in a heads-up-series against Bilzerian himself. In addition, players who knock out Bilzerian will win an all-expenses-paid trip to Las Vegas, NV to party with the Instagram king himself.

In these crazy times, GGPoker is the best option to get my poker on - they cater to the recreational players and that’s the future of poker, not a bunch of math nerds,” said Dan Bilzerian.

He further added, “I’ve battled guys from the $2 buy-in to the $200,000 buy-in tables at GGPoker, and will be working with GG to make cash game tables even better for the average player out there.”
