There is no stop for the crypto-based poker site CoinPoker, as it’s continuously adding star poker players to its ambassador rank. In a new addition to the CoinPoker Ambassador roster, the site joins hands with the Brazilian poker player Olivio Gontijo alias BigFat.
Olivio Gontijo is now part of the CoinPoker ambassador rank, which includes Tony G, Carl Froch, Mario Mosböck, Patrick Leonard, Jonathan Little, and many more poker players. Olivio Gontijo joined CoinPoker on September 1, which was followed by the signing of the Ukrainian female pro-Olga Iermolcheva to its ambassador rank.
Brazil is currently one of the booming countries in Online Poker, with several online poker operators tapping into the online poker world of Brazil. Pokerstars even roped football star Neymar in 2021, as its ambassador to attract both soccer and Brazilian fans.
Who is Olivio Gontijo?
Olivio Gontijo is a Brazilian poker pro and streamer who frequently streams on YouTube and his Twitch channel under the name ‘BigFat.’ He is mostly an online poker player but has appeared in several live poker tournaments as well.

With the announcement of joining CoinPoker, the player also announced a $300 GTD freeroll with an extra $100 Bounty to whoever eliminated him.
