Currently holding the number one spot on Serbia’s all-time money list, he is a respected veteran of the high-stakes circuit with a career spanning over a decade.
Career Earnings & Biggest Results
With total live tournament earnings of over $7.2 million (according to The Hendon Mob), Andrejevic is a true heavyweight of the game. His biggest live payday came in 2015 at the Asia Pacific Poker Tour (APPT) Macau, where he won the HKD 500,000 Super High Roller for a massive $1,125,722.
In 2025, Andrejevic achieved the ultimate poker dream by winning his first World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet. He outlasted 1,168 players in the $5,000 No Limit Hold’em 6-Handed event to take home $855,515.

Biography & Poker Background
Originally from Belgrade, Serbia, Andrejevic eventually moved to Miami, Florida, to be closer to the heart of the high-stakes action. He first began recording live tournament results in 2012, starting with smaller events in Florida before quickly moving up to the global stage. His big breakout came in 2016 when he won the WPT Amsterdam Main Event, which solidified his status as a world-class competitor. Despite being at the top of the game for years, Andrejevic is known for his modest attitude, often crediting his success to hard work and the support of his friends in the poker community.
Play Style & Strategy
Andrejevic is famous for being one of the most resilient players at the table. During his 2025 bracelet win, he earned the nickname “The Cockroach” because he survived eight different all-in moments as a short stack, refusing to be eliminated until he eventually won the whole thing. He is a versatile player who excels in both No Limit Hold’em and Pot Limit Omaha, often using a “small ball” strategy to control pot sizes before applying massive pressure when he has a tactical advantage. His game is built on a mix of classic live reads and a very strong mental game that allows him to stay patient even when he is the underdog.
