To mark the celebration, 888poker will be hosting several events throughout the year, including a series of player-focused events with its new ambassador.

Eubank Jr said: “Poker is one of the great passions in my life, so I am delighted to partner with 888poker. For me, the beauty of poker is in its community, and 888poker is doing a fantastic job of making poker more about the fun and less about the grind for players at all levels with its user-friendly platform.

"I’m excited to officially kick-start the partnership in the coming months and can’t wait to meet the 888poker community at the tables.”

Amit Berkovich, VP, Head of Poker at 888, added: “I am happy to welcome Chris to the 888poker family as our Cultural Ambassador. The authenticity, integrity, and excitement he brings – whether that’s in the ring or at the poker table – perfectly matches our values and creates a great fit for our brand.

"This is a fantastic partnership and an exciting kick-off for our 20th anniversary year.”
