Online poker giant GGPoker has made two new additions to its team. In recent years, the brand has roped in several poker celebrities, including Daniel Negreanu and Jason Koon. In another significant move, GGPoker has signed up two top-notch poker personalities, Jeff Gross and Ali Nejad, as its latest brand ambassadors.

Both Gross and Nejad are high-flying components of the poker industry. Nejad is one of the most famous voices of the game, while Gross is an ace content creator with a massive fan following. As part of Team GGPoker, the duo will create engaging content for GGPoker.

GGPoker made the big announcement in a presser on Tuesday. The poker giant even tweeted a video of the duo announcing the news.

Talking about the sign-up, Nejad said, “To get in with the likes of GG, and to have a deal that encompasses such a broad scope of opportunity, for me to kind of support their efforts and help bring to fruition the vision they have for being fun and entertaining and lighthearted and not taking themselves too seriously, it is very much my cup of tea.”

Gross underlined that he has no plans to change his content creation schedule and finds the brand the right platform to endorse.

“I don’t plan to change much on what I’m doing. I stick to my motto, I love poker, and I love people, so Twitch, YouTube, whatever it may be, it’s just something that I love. I think with GG, it’s the right place, right time,” Gross said.

 

GGPoker – Making the Right Move

All of 44, Ali Nejad is a well-known poker commentator and part of the accomplished group of commentators from the poker boom era of the 2000s. He served as the lead announcer for the NBC Heads-Up Poker Championship and initially hosted Poker After Dark in the 2000s when the show was being aired on NBC.

Nejad continued as the show’s host even after it moved to PokerGO. He has hosted many other high roller events on PokerGO, including the US Poker Open and Poker Masters. Nejad has often joined Nick Schulman in the commentators’ booth. Now that GGPoker owns Poker After Dark, it was only natural for him to sign up with them.

Jeff Gross, a former PokerStars Team Pro, is a top poker content creator with a wide fan following across Twitch, YouTube, and Twitter and runs the immensely popular Jeff Gross Podcast. Gross also has a formidable poker record and boasts over $3.5 Million in live tournament cashes.

With these two new additions, GGPoker will be looking to cash in on more opportunities and expand its reach further among the poker community.
