Yuri Dzivielevski
Curitiba, Brazil
Yuri Dzivielevski, known online as 'theNERDguy', is Brazil's most successful tournament player and one of the most decorated mixed-game specialists of his generation. Born in Curitiba in 1991, he built his reputation online with nine WCOOP and five SCOOP titles before translating that into six WSOP bracelets across a remarkable spread of variants, from Omaha-8/Stud-8 to no-limit hold'em high rollers. His biggest live score came in 2026, when he won a $100,000 WSOP High Roller for more than $2.8 million, and he also holds an EPT Monte Carlo €25k high-roller title from 2022. He is a regular in the biggest online tournaments on GGPoker and a figure Brazilian players look up to.
