Ricardo "Mat3usPT" Mateus
"I think that together we will be able to do fantastic things"
Hailing from Portugal, Mateus made the switch from recreational player to poker streamer in 2018 by setting up his own Twitch channel.
Since then he's grown a small community from his streams, and has begun taking more time away from streaming to study and improve his game.
"I am extremely flattered and excited to represent a brand like 888poker. I think that together we will be able to do fantastic things and raise the game of poker in Portugal in a fun and responsible way."

He first started playing poker in 2017, and is still working to improve his game and see how far poker can take him.
"I’m very excited to try and build up the 888poker StreamTeam on Twitch!" said Gibson. "I feel that the more different sites getting involved is great for not only Twitch but poker in general. I look forward to helping 888poker move forward and create exciting opportunities for poker players."

Adam "Eklo" Tocholke
Known as "Eklo", Tocholke is the only 888poker StreamTeam member based outside of Europe. Located in Ontario, Canada, Tocholke is a successful music producer with over 50 million streams on Spotify.
However, his passion for content creation led him to Twitch in 2018 where he has been building up an online community and streaming online poker.
"I love that my favourite poker room is getting more and more into the live streaming space," said Tocholke. "Poker is so fun to watch live, and Twitch is the perfect platform to harbour that relationship between the player and the community."
