Crypto poker site and app CoinPoker keeps adding to its stacked lineup of brand ambassadors, now partnering with one of Brazil’s biggest poker streamers – Olivio “Bigfat” Gontijo.
Bigfat is joining the ranks of ambassadors like Mario Mosböck, Fernando “JNandez” Habegger, Patrick “Pads” Leonard, Charlie “Iambluff” Carrel and Jonathan Little, which is just one of the factors behind CoinPoker’s ascent to being the top crypto poker brand.
The company has also recently signed a deal with top-ranked Ukrainian female player Olga Iermolcheva.
Top Brazil Poker Streamer
Online poker is very popular in Brazil, with a growing part of the population getting involved in the game.
Therefore, it is no surprise that netting one of the biggest poker celebrities in Brazil as one of the brand ambassadors is a major win for CoinPoker.
Gontijo has been a professional poker player for 8 years, with his performance in tournaments like the 2021 GGPoker WSOP Online Bracelet Events earning him widespread recognition.
However, his persona as ‘Bigfat’ – a charismatic and hilarious streamer with excellent poker skills – is what propelled him to prominence. With 24.6k followers on the streaming platform Twitch, Gontijo is one of the key figures behind online poker’s growing popularity in Brazil.
Bigfat is also extremely popular on Instagram, with 13.3k followers and over 2.3 million views on reels.
