Seven Bracelets, $24M, and a Hall of Fame Nod

Published on July 12th, 2025 4:18 pm EST

Nick Schulman is now in the Poker Hall of Fame.

No surprise. No debate.

He's the 64th member. Only the fourth to get in on his first try. That list? Chip Reese. Daniel Negreanu. Phil Ivey. Now Nick Schulman.

He just turned 40.

Seven WSOP bracelets. Three in No-Limit Deuce-to-Seven.

His latest? June 2025. $10K 2-7 Single Draw. He beat Darren Elias. Heads-up. Nearly eight hours. He took home $497,356.

His first bracelet came in 2009. Then 2012. More came in 2019, 2023, and two in 2024. Different games. Different formats. Always elite.

He's not just a tournament guy.

He exploded onto the scene in 2005. Won the WPT World Poker Finals at Foxwoods. Age 21. $2.17 million. Youngest winner ever.

Today, his live cashes top $24 million. 265+ total cashes. 18 major titles. That's elite volume. That's consistency.

But there's more.

He crushes high-stakes cash games. Bobby's Room. Mixed games. The toughest lineups in the world.

And the voice.

Schulman is now the voice of High Stakes Poker. He replaced Gabe Kaplan. He co-hosts PokerGO's "Night Shift." Sharp takes. Real insight. No fluff.

He brings depth. Class. And edge.

The Poker Hall of Fame isn't about popularity. It's about performance, longevity, and respect. Schulman has delivered on all three.

This wasn't a sentimental pick. It was a recognition of work done - and still being done - at the highest level.
