CoinPoker’s brand ambassador Olga Iermolcheva revealed which poker player is the Cristiano Ronaldo of the card game.

Iermolcheva in an interview with Poker.Org named Jason Koon as the Cristiano Ronaldo of poker. The Game of Gold star made this revelation when asked about her return to GGPoker’s show for season two.

Iermolcheva said, “With Game of Gold, they told me that they will definitely make season two but as I understood it, I will not be there.”

“They are going to change the format a little bit and they said that probably they will invite some people who were on the show [in season one], but who were only on for a really small time, for example Team Clubs with Daniel Negreanu and Jason Koon.”

“By the way, I admire Jason a lot as well - he is the Cristiano Ronaldo of the game,” further added the Ukrainian player.

“The CoinPoker ambassador was also asked about her immediate plan in poker to which she commented stating, “December is my favourite month for poker because there are so many tournaments.”

“At the moment I am having kind of a break - I had a really busy summer, I was playing every day during the WSOP, like literally every day. Then I went to EPT Barcelona, and now I have a small break.”

“In December first I'll go to Dublin because we have a tournament with CoinPoker. I haven't decided yet between the WSOP in the Bahamas and the WPT in Las Vegas, they are both so good, so I will probably decide at the last moment.”

The female poker pro was also quizzed about her collaboration with CoinPoker. Iermolcheva added, “I love the game a lot and I want to attract more players, and I think that CoinPoker is doing great things - I see the potential, I see the plans of the company, I see the people they attract, both for the technical stuff and also the influencers.”

The CoinPoker ambassador also mentioned that Patrick Leonard was one of the crucial reasons why she joined forces with CoinPoker.

She mentioned, “I’ve known Pads [fellow CoinPoker ambassador Patrick Leonard] for a long time and he's a great person with a perfect reputation, and also what I like about him is that he also has a big passion for the game.”

“He wants it to grow, and he is doing a lot of things just because he's a nice person; he's not doing this to get any value from people, he's given so many tips, just free on his Instagram account, and he's doing a lot of educational stuff.

“I'm happy to join him - he is, like, one of the GOATS of online poker. That was one of the crucial things for me to join the team, because I wanted to work with Pads.”

In September 2024, CoinPoker announced onboarding Iermolcheva as their brand ambassador. She joins the elite list of CoinPoker ambassadors like Patrick Leonard, Carl Froch, and Mario Mosböck.
