We know you'd be lying if you told us you never had this dream: The dream of winning the WSOP Main Event. The cameras, the spotlight, the glory!
Three of our very own members are getting incredibly close to realizing that dream right now. With only 57 players remaining on Day 7 of the Main Event, Stefan Nemetz, Sebastian Schulze, and Luka Bojovic are proving once again that Team Pokercode is a force to be reckoned with.
Let's take a closer look at our poker heroes:
Starting Day 7 in an excellent 26th position with 9,700,000 chips, Germany's own Sebastian Schulze has been on an absolute tear. A Pokercode member since our earliest days, Sebastian has not only mastered his own game but has also given back to the community as a Pokercode Community Coach. You can connect with him directly in our Discord! His journey is a vivid illustration of dedication paying off. After a long period of development, growth, and even some setbacks, he famously secured his first EPT title in Barcelona in September 2024, winning the €2,700 Second Chance Event for an impressive $361,355 – a much-deserved kick-off after what felt like a long drought.
Now, he's showing that championship mettle on the biggest stage of all. Sebastian showcased an absolute A-class game during the WSOP Main Event so far. After chip leading at the end of Day 5, he delivered an absolute masterclass on Day 6 on the feature table, even running big bluffs that left commentators stunned. Lately, he has received significant support from high-stakes wizard and Pokercode Head Coach Matthias Eibinger, truly showcasing how consistency and resilience, combined with top-tier guidance, always pay off.
Austria's own Stefan Nemetz, known affectionately as "Nemi," sits in 31st position with 7,900,000 chips. Stefan has a formidable poker resume, boasting nearly $1 million in live earnings and a massive online victory in the ACR Venom for over $782,000. Stefan's path, including his participation in the original Pokercode Grindhouse, showcases a player who is constantly striving for improvement, not just monetary goals. "Nemi" is also a vital part of the crew around high-stakes regulars Mario Mosböck and Roland Rokita, a group known for their unwavering commitment to improving their game. His calm demeanour and sharp decision-making are perfect characteristics to hold heading into Day 7, where the pressure starts to unravel some of his opponents.
Our third hero of this year’s WSOP is Luka Bojovic, from Serbia. He’s starting Day 7 in 40th position with 6,900,000 chips. A proud member of Team Pokercode and another Grindhouse 2 participant, Luka has consistently demonstrated his prowess on the felt. With over $700,000 in live earnings, including a WSOP Circuit ring and a final table appearance at the WSOP Europe Main Event, Luka's journey embodies the relentless pursuit of excellence that we champion. What makes Luka's story even more compelling is his incredible bond with Sebastian. These two have a perfect "bromance," after sharing the Grindhouse experience together they continue to be roommates in Vienna and are with each other every step of the way on this journey in poker and life.
They tell us that poker is not just about luck; it's about dedication, continuous learning, and having the right tools and community support. The success of Sebastian, Stefan, and Luka is a direct reflection of hard work, but a support system that allows upcoming poker players to put everything into their journey with like-minded people. As much as these guys are out there battling on their own, it's a community and a team effort that helps them get to this stage. Everything that Pokercode prides itself in.
These players are showing the Pokercode community that anything is possible with hard-work and dedication. They're setting the tone for the next wave of players that are ready to emerge on the biggest stages all over the poker world. The beauty of it is, that next player could be you.
Watching these three champions battle it out for poker's most coveted title should ignite a fire in every aspiring player. Their journeys from dedicated students to Main Event contenders prove that with the right guidance, anything is possible.
