Sebastian Schulze Poker History
Schulze's biggest cash to date is a victory in the €2,700 EPT Second Chance at the 2024 PokerStars EPT Barcelona. Schulze topped a 738-player field for a career-best of €326,600, his best score prior to the 2025 WSOP Main Event.
In the WSOP Main Event, he racked up a chip lead on Day 5 before inevitably falling in 23rd place for a career-best $360,000. That finish was quite an impressive run considering the field reached 9,735 players in the $10,000 buy-in world championship event. Schulze only had two prior cashes in live World Series of Poker bracelet events, plus a third online.
