His early results include a 4th-place finish in the €1,100 Main Event of the WSOP Circuit at Casino Campione in September 2017, earning €17,800. That same year, he also cashed in the 2017 World Series of Poker Event #37: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em for $6,165.

WSOP Europe Deep Run

Danis's most notable achievement came at the 2017 World Series of Poker Europe. In Event #1: €1,100 No-Limit Hold'em MONSTER STACK, he finished 7th out of 561 entries, earning €13,225. According to a PokerNews report, he was eliminated when his all-in with pocket fives lost to Carlo Savinelli’s pocket eights after the board ran out.

EPT and European Tournaments

Danis has multiple cashes on the European Poker Tour. At the 2022 EPT Prague, he finished 647th in the €1,100 Eureka Main Event for €1,770.

IPO Masters Success

In November 2018, Danis took the chip lead after Day 1B of the IPO Masters Main Event at the Grand Casino Liechtenstein. The tournament had a CHF 1,100 buy-in and a CHF 250,000 guarantee. Danis bagged 714,000 chips, the largest stack among qualifiers at that point.

Playing Style and Presence

While detailed analysis of Danis's playing style is scarce, his results suggest a solid, patient approach suited to deep-stack tournaments. He is known to play in high-stakes events and cash games, but he maintains a relatively low public profile compared to many touring pros.

Legacy

Serge Danis may not be a household name, but his consistent cashes across WSOP, EPT, and independent festivals demonstrate a steady hand. His career total earnings, according to WSOP.com, exceed $44,000, with most of his success coming in European events.
