Maryano Grandoli earned millions from poker in 2025

Popular poker vlogger Maryano Grandoli has wrapped up 2025, revealing that he earned over seven figures from cash games. Find out how he made it happen.

Mariano Grandoli — a popular poker vlogger and one of the regular players on Hustler Casino Live — summed up his results for 2025 and shared his staggering cash game results. His annual earnings exceeded seven figures, which became a real sensation in the poker community. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how Mariano achieved these results, compare them to his past accomplishments, and discuss what this means for PPPoker club players. Mariano Grandoli’s Impressive Results in 2025 In his year-end video on YouTube, Mariano Grandoli reported that he won $1,257,000 in cash games in 2025. To achieve this, he spent just 557 hours at the poker table, spread across 92 sessions . This means his average hourly profit was $2,256.73 . Such numbers are rare even among high-level professional players. Mariano himself noted: “This was the best year of my career. I won $1.25 million — an amount I’m incredibly happy with and couldn’t have even imagined when I started my channel playing $1/$3 and $1/$2 stakes.” Comparison with 2024 Results To appreciate the scale of Mariano’s success, it’s worth comparing his achievements to the previous year. In 2024, he also released a video report, where he talked about winning $486,200 over 485 hours of play. That’s about $1,000 per hour — already an impressive figure, considering the total time at the tables is comparable to 12 working weeks for the average American. However, in 2025 his results more than doubled both in total winnings and hourly profit. This clearly demonstrates Mariano’s progress and his solid establishment at high stakes. The Journey from Low Stakes to High Stakes and Success on Hustler Casino Live Mariano Grandoli’s YouTube channel was launched in February 2019. In his very first video, he sat down with a $300 buy-in at a $1/$3 game in the San Manuel poker room (Southern California). Since then, his career has developed rapidly: he moved up from low stakes to playing games with six-figure buy-ins at venues like Hustler Casino Live and Poker at the Lodge . 2025 was especially successful for Mariano, despite a tough stretch in the middle of the year on Hustler Casino Live. Nevertheless, by the end of the year, he was among the best players at these stakes. Comparison with Other Vloggers’ Results For contrast, it’s worth noting that not all poker vloggers can boast such success. For example, his friend and fellow vlogger Ethan "Rampage" Yau shared last year that his average loss was about $850 per hour . This highlights just how outstanding Mariano’s results were, especially considering the limited number of hours played. Channel Growth and Other Projects In 2025, Mariano found success not only at the poker table but also in growing his YouTube channel. At the end of 2024, he had about 170,000 subscribers , and by the end of 2025, that number had increased by about 15% to over 200,000 . This shows the growing popularity of his content among poker fans. Besides poker, Mariano is also involved in music. In his year-end video, he announced the release of a new album by his band Dear Delta , where he plays drums. According to him, the group is inspired by 2000s emo music and punk rock. Mariano Grandoli’s Final Results Table for 2025 Total winnings: $1,257,000 Hours at the table: 557 Number of sessions: 92 Average hourly profit: $2,256.73 YouTube channel subscriber growth: from 170,000 to 200,000 (+15%) What This Means for PPPoker Club Players Mariano Grandoli’s success story is a great example of how a smart approach to bankroll management, game analysis, and stake selection can lead to impressive results even with a relatively small number of playing hours. For PPPoker club players, this is a signal: you don’t have to spend thousands of hours at the tables each year to make serious progress — what matters is the quality of your play and discipline. Moreover, Mariano’s experience shows that building a personal brand and creating content around your game can not only motivate you as a player but also bring additional popularity and opportunities outside the poker table. For PPPoker club members, this can be an incentive to share their successes, analyze hands, and build their own poker community. Finally, the comparison with other well-known vloggers like Ethan "Rampage" Yau highlights that even among professionals, there are both highs and tough periods. The key is to maintain a long-term strategy, keep working on your game, and take advantage of the opportunities that modern online poker offers, including on the PPPoker platform.
