King of Instagram Dan Bilzerian joins GGPoker as their latest brand ambassador and announces a $100,000 GTD birthday freeroll

He's previously tussled with Doug Polk over bitcoin and claimed to pioneered the loose-aggressive playing style in poker.

But now Dan Bilzerian is making perhaps his biggest leap into poker in quite a while. The so-called 'King of Instagram' has joined GGPoker as a brand ambassador.

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

"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.”

Daniel Negreanu

Fellow GGPoker Ambassador Daniel Negreanu said that Bilzerian joining Team GGPoker is a "huge win."

"No one in poker has a bigger reach than Dan,” said Negreanu. “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!”

To celebrate Bilzerian joining, GGPoker is hosting one of the biggest online poker freerolls in recent memory as a special 40th Birthday Freeroll for 'Blitz'.
