GGPoker names Leah Hauer as UK and Ireland brand ambassador

GGPoker.co.uk has appointed Leah Hauer as its UK & Ireland Brand Ambassador, adding the content creator and poker player to its GGTeam ambassador roster. The operator announced the signing on July 1, 2026, in Dublin.

GGPoker said Hauer will represent the brand both online at GGPoker.co.uk and at major live tournament circuits across the United Kingdom and Ireland. The company added that her schedule will include appearances at tournaments hosted by Grosvenor Casinos, following Grosvenor’s recently announced partnership with GGPoker.

Hauer previously streamed League of Legends and worked in corporate consulting at Visa, according to the company. GGPoker highlighted her YouTube channel, ‘leahhatespoker’, and cited recent live results including an 18th-place finish in the €1,000 Ladies Championship at the 2026 World Series of Poker Europe in Prague, a third-place finish in the British Poker Series (BPS) London Ladies Event, and second- and third-place finishes at the Merit Poker Carmen Series in Cyprus.

“I am incredibly proud to partner with the world’s biggest online poker room and officially become a member of GGTeam,” said Leah Hauer. “My poker journey to date has been a wild ride, and the community in the UK and Ireland has always been at the heart of it. What excites me most about joining GGPoker is how closely our values align – a shared passion for growing the game, supporting players, and bringing the poker community together both online and at live events. I can’t wait to get started and help showcase the game we all love across the region.”

“We are absolutely delighted to welcome Leah to the GGPoker family,” said Angela Martin, UK & Ireland Head of Marketing at GGPoker. “Leah brings a refreshing energy, genuine authenticity, and a fantastic connection to the grassroots UK poker scene. Her passion for the game and engaging content make her the perfect ambassador for GGPoker in the UK and Ireland. At GGPoker, we’re committed to doing things differently by celebrating and supporting our poker community both online and offline. Leah shares those values, and we’re excited to have her help us connect with and grow the game across the UK.”
