Early Career
Geozoh Netanelof first appeared in live tournament records at the Parx Casino in Bensalem, Pennsylvania, during the Big Stax VI series in May 2014. No earlier tournament results are publicly available.
Parx Big Stax VI Deep Run
In the main event of Parx Big Stax VI, Netanelof advanced to the final two tables. At the final break of Level 23 (blinds 12,000/24,000/4,000), he was seated at Table 47 with 900,000 chips. The tournament had 18 players remaining at that point, each guaranteed a cash prize of at least $2,589. Netanelof eventually fell short of the final table (top 9), but his finish placed him among the top 1% of the field.
Chip Stack Analysis
During the final break, Netanelof's 900,000 chips represented approximately 60 big blinds (with blinds at 15,000/30,000/5,000 ante for the upcoming level). This placed him slightly below the average stack of 1,500,000, indicating he was in the middle of the pack but still had room to maneuver. His table included several notable players such as John Dascoli (2,400,000) and Trevor Deeter (3,100,000).
Financial Summary
Based on the payout structure, Netanelof's cash in Parx Big Stax VI was likely between $2,589 (for 19th–24th) and $4,000 (estimated for 18th). This represents his only recorded tournament cash to date.
Context and Legacy
Netanelof's performance at Parx Big Stax VI places him within the competitive regional poker scene of the mid-2010s. While he did not achieve widespread recognition, his deep run demonstrates the skill required to navigate large-field tournaments. No further appearances have been documented, suggesting he may have transitioned away from poker or remained an amateur enthusiast.
