2025 Was The Biggest Year Yet For Mariano
YouTuber Mariano Grandoli, who started from humble beginnings as a 1/2 NLH live cash game vlogger, just posted his biggest year yet for cash game earnings across both livestream and private game winnings.
It's revealed in this video that across all cash games in 2025, Mariano profited +$1,257,000 across 557 hours of play and 92 sessions. This does not include any endorsements or advertisement income he generated as a content creator throughout the year as well.
Mariano's Livestream Cash Game Winnings
As a prominent content creator, Mariano holds a permanent seat on Hustler Casino Live- one of the world's largest and most consistent high-stakes poker broadcasts. Unsurprisingly, he has also emerged as one of the most profitable players in the history of televised cash games.
To date, Mariano is up a staggering +$4,183,100 in his livestream cash game poker career. This places him at Rank #5 on the All-Time TV Cash Game List ahead of well-known high stakes professionals like Tom Dwan and Garrett Adelstein, only trailing behind big names like Andrew Robl and Daniel "Jungleman" Cates.
Similarly on livestream specific leaderboards, Mariano is Rank #1 on the Hustler Casino Live leaderboard as well as Rank #7 on Poker At The Lodge.
For 2025, across all livestream cash games Mariano posted a +$927,715 profit for the year. Most of these winnings came from Hustler Casino Live and Poker At The Lodge. He made two brief appearances on Season 1 of the "Cash Flow' series which are both paywalled broadcasts on the PokerGO streaming site.
