The Uprising of Acerziggy
Today, Acerziggy is best known for his Twitch streams, where he plays online poker through Coolbet, of which he is also an ambassador. Trust us, his way of entertaining is very engaging and safe to say, in a brutally honest style. He streams several times a week, usually on Fridays and Sundays, and even has his very own tournament on Coolbet where his community comes together to have some fun at the virtual tables. When you think his stream is just about poker, you might be a bit off- it's more about the community vibe, the fun topic discussions, and unfiltered commentary.
Dag has a good sense for mixing humour and has sharp analysis, adding the occasional hot take into a blender, and you have a perfect mix! With close to a thousand followers and a growing average viewership, his Twitch Channel is becoming well-known in the Norwegian community. And not just in Norway, because Dag does all his streams in English!
The Love for Live Events
Acerziggy is not just a digital entertainer. He’s an experienced live tournament player who consistently shows up and performs at some of Norway’s biggest poker events. With six Norwegian Championship (NM) final table appearances under his belt, including a third-place finish in the 2019 Main Event and multiple top-five placements across Deepstack and 8-Game events, Dag has proven he can back up his talk with real results. Internationally, he's made his mark in events like the Coolbet Open, which is being held again on August 11-17 in Tallinn, where Dag also was present last year.

Dag 'Acerziggy' Nilsen
What sets Dag apart isn't just his poker skills—it's his outspoken persona. He speaks his mind, both at the table and online, and has built a loyal fan base that appreciates his honesty. If we didn't know he was from Norway, then the Netherlands would be our pick in terms of his personality! He is a father of three kids, always genuine, and is just a great sport who doesn't script or polish his content. When he is not with his kids or busy with other businesses, he is likely studying poker hands, throwing everything in the GTO Wizard machine, reading books by Doyle Brunson, Dara O'Kearney, or David Sklansky's 'The Theory of Poker'. (Note: We are not very sure about this last part!).
For those seeking an honest, entertaining, and insightful window into the world of poker, Dag “Acerziggy” Nilsen is a must-watch. Give him a follow, and join us in Malta alongside your favourite streamer!
