Biography & The Winamax Masterclass

Sacha Cohen originally honed his sharp poker mechanics across the highly competitive French digital networks before seamlessly transitioning into a prominent presence on the live tournament felt.

While long respected as a highly dangerous circuit regular, Cohen achieved definitive mainstream superstardom in March 2026 at the Winamax Poker Tour Grande Finale. Navigating an absolute minefield of 3,610 entries, Cohen advanced to the final table backed by an elite rail consisting of close friends and French poker heavyweights like Julien Sitbon and Malcolm Franchi.

Alongside his historic win, Cohen has developed an international reputation for his unshakeable mental fortitude; during the 2025 World Series of Poker Main Event, he famously stood his ground during an intense, highly publicized 10-minute stalling incident with controversial British pro Will Kassouf , calmly calling the clock to protect the integrity of the game. In June 2026, Cohen traveled back to Las Vegas to build on his momentum, already logging cashes at the 57th annual WSOP summer circuit.
