Ramos explains to BILD: “Neymar saw him on social media and then contacted him. We then met several times because he really wanted to learn poker.” It was worth it for the superstar. Neymar, who now plays for Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia, has already won a few tournaments online.
And what kind of poker player is Neymar?

Ramos: “Neymar is a person who learns very quickly. The first time we had a lesson, I told him that he shouldn’t do certain things in poker and immediately in the next hands he implemented it. It is “Just a small example. He’s really a good boy.”

Even Brazil legend Ronaldo picked up tips from Ramos. “That was a few years ago in the Bahamas. We were both very far into the main event and were bagging the chips at the end. Then someone from behind tapped me on the shoulder – and it was Ronaldo. I couldn’t believe it. He asked asked me if I wanted to go out to dinner with him. I was speechless and went with him straight away. Then he asked me how I played some of the hands he had. That was really great.”

But Neymar and Ronaldo are not Ramos’ only students. Both Gabriel Jesus from Arsenal London and Marquhinos from Paris St. Germain invited Ramos to play poker games at home. For the Brazilian, the game is absolutely fun. He was even hired by Brazil club Palmeiras to help players learn and remember better through poker.
He can’t understand why poker still has a bad reputation. Ramos: “I’m very grateful to people like Neymar, Ronaldo and UFC star Tito Ortiz because they help make poker known around the world and put it in a different light. Even if many people think poorly of them Stars play poker. You have to remember it’s their free time and their hobby. It’s like watching Netflix or playing on the computer. It’s my passion to introduce people to poker.”
By the way: Ramos now lives in Vienna and is married to the German poker player Nathalie Hof-Ramos. Both have a daughter.
