Shaun Deeb is an American professional poker player and one of the most prolific “grinders” in the history of the game. A 2018 WSOP Player of the Year, he is renowned for his mastery of all poker variants and his legendary dominance in both live and online tournament arenas.

Career Earnings & Biggest Results

With total live tournament earnings exceeding $14,357,000 (according to The Hendon Mob), Deeb is a mainstay at the top of the All Time Money List. His career-best live score of $1,402,683 was achieved in 2018 at the WSOP $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller. A six-time WSOP bracelet winner, Deeb has secured titles in diverse formats including Pot-Limit Omaha, Seven Card Stud, and No-Limit Hold’em. His massive online success is equally impressive, holding multiple WCOOP and SCOOP titles, contributing to an estimated poker net worth of over $15 million.

Biography & Poker Background

Born on March 1, 1986, in Schenectady, New York, Deeb began his gambling career playing cards at his grandmother’s house and hosting games in high school. He transitioned to online poker in the early 2000s, becoming one of the most feared tournament specialists in the world under the handle “shaundeeb”. Known for his incredible work ethic, he is famous for “multi-tabling” more games simultaneously than almost any other professional. Deeb is also a legendary figure for his high-stakes prop bets, recently making headlines for a major body-fat loss wager in 2024 that showcased his extreme discipline.

Play Style & Strategy

Deeb is recognized for a “hyper-aggressive and highly exploitative” play style. While he has a deep understanding of modern GTO (Game Theory Optimal) foundations, his strategy emphasizes identifying and attacking specific opponent weaknesses – a skill honed through millions of hands played online. He is considered one of the world’s premier mixed-game specialists, possessing an elite ability to switch between vastly different mathematical and psychological dynamics in a single session. His endurance is a key weapon; he is known for playing nearly every event on the WSOP schedule in his relentless pursuit of Player of the Year honors.
