Leah Hauer named GGPoker UK & Ireland Brand Ambassador
From Visa consultant to rising poker star and content creator
Will represent GGTeam at major live and online events

GGPoker has signed content creator Leah Hauer as its new UK and Ireland Brand Ambassador. The former Visa consultant will represent GGTeam online and at live tournaments, including events hosted via GGPoker's recent partnership with Grosvenor Casinos.

GGPoker.co.uk has officially announced the signing of popular content creator and rising poker star Leah Hauer as the newest member of its elite ambassador stable, GGTeam.

Hauer steps into the spotlight as the dedicated UK and Ireland Brand Ambassador. In this role, she will represent the world's biggest online poker room online at GGPoker.co.uk and at major live tournament circuits across the United Kingdom and Ireland.

Hauer's journey into the poker community transitions from a unique background. A former League of Legends streamer with a razor-sharp competitive edge, she walked away from a successful corporate consulting career at Visa to pursue her passion for poker full-time.

Since dedicating herself to the game, Hauer has built a loyal following within the UK poker community through her entertaining and authentic YouTube channel, "leahhatespoker" (a tongue-in-cheek nod to the emotional roller coaster that every passionate player experiences).

Beyond her community presence, Hauer has established her prowess on the felt with both international and domestic results, including:

2026 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) Prague: A standout deep run, finishing 18th in the highly competitive €1,000 Ladies Championship.
British Poker Series (BPS) London: A podium finish, clinching 3rd place in the BPS Ladies Event.
Merit Poker Carmen Series: Back-to-back podium finishes (2nd and 3rd place) in Cyprus.
