Sean Perry

Sean Perry was born on December 5, 1996, in the United States. He is the son of WSOP bracelet winner Ralph Perry and grew up around poker, learning the game from an early age. Perry resides in Las Vegas, Nevada, and attended college before pursuing poker full-time. He is of Russian descent through his father.

Perry has achieved notable results in high-stakes tournaments, amassing over $6.8 million in live earnings according to the Hendon Mob database. His largest cash to date came in February 2022 when he won the $50,000 No-Limit Hold'em PokerGO Cup Finale for $640,000. He also won a $25,000 Venetian High Roller title in May 2021 for $365,500. In April 2021, he finished third in the $25,500 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown High Roller for $596,418. At the 2021 World Series of Poker, he placed fourth in the $100,000 High Roller event for $590,344. Other high-roller results include a sixth-place finish in the $50,000 WSOP High Roller in 2022 ($264,034), a fifth-place in the 2023 PokerGO Cup $26,000 event ($100,000), and a 17th-place in the 2023 Triton Poker Super High Roller Series London $50,000 event ($81,000).

Perry has over $532,000 in WPT earnings across three cashes. His best WPT result came in December 2017 when he finished fourth in the $10,400 WPT Five Diamond World Poker Classic at Bellagio, earning $504,090. That event was notable because he got to play alongside his father, Ralph Perry. He also cashed in the 2021 WPT Venetian Resort event (41st for $19,920) and the 2017 bestbet Bounty Scramble (28th for $8,839).

Perry is also known for his high-stakes sports betting activities. In December 2023, he made national headlines by refusing to chop the $9.3 million Circa Survivor contest; he was later eliminated. He leaned into the controversy and developed a strong social media presence, promoting his sports betting picks under the handles @seanperrywins on X and Instagram. In February 2024, he lost a $1.1 million Super Bowl bet on the San Francisco 49ers. Despite these public losses, Perry continues to share his betting insights and maintains a following.

Perry claims to be one of the best sports bettors in the world, a claim met with skepticism from figures like Shaun Deeb and sports betting legend Haralobos Voulgaris. Several poker players, including Deeb, have also questioned Perry's poker skills. The criticism has not deterred Perry, who continues to compete in high-stakes poker events and engage with his audience online.

Perry continues to compete in major tournaments. At the 2026 World Series of Poker, he cashed in three events: 604th in the $10,000 Main Event ($27,500), 30th in the $50,000 High Roller 8-Handed ($100,497), and 45th in the $10,000 GGMillion$ High Roller ($25,978). Earlier, in 2022, he placed 8th in the Wynn Millions $10,000 Main Event ($202,908). Perry has a total of 66 live cashes with 9 tournament wins, ranking 269th on the All Time Money List. He is also 129th on the United States All Time Money List and 22nd on the California All Time Money List. His social media presence remains active, with followers on X (@seanmperry1) and Instagram (@seanperrywins).
