Shai Elbaz's earliest known appearance is on the gaming platform BrainKing in 2003, where his profile lists his country as Israel. He has since been associated with the United States; two LinkedIn profiles exist under the name Shai Elbaz: one as Owner of Green Advisor, Inc. in Los Angeles, California (since 2005), and another as a Software Developer at Mellanox Technologies in Israel (2012–present). It is unclear whether these profiles belong to the same individual or different people.

According to the Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT), a player named Shai Shalom Elbaz, residing in Los Angeles, California, has recorded career tournament earnings of $2,907. The MSPT database does not list specific event placements, but the total indicates at least one cash. Additionally, a WSOP Circuit event at Commerce Casino in November 2022 featured a $600 Pot-Limit Omaha tournament with 128 entries; the payout table includes positions 1–20, but no player names are directly associated with Shai Elbaz in the provided search results.

The LinkedIn profile for Shai Elbaz as Owner at Green Advisor, Inc. spans from 2005 to the present, suggesting a long-term business commitment. Another LinkedIn profile shows software development experience at Amdocs (2010–2012) and Mellanox Technologies (2012–present), with a Bachelor of Applied Science in Computer Science from the University of Haifa, Israel. These roles indicate a strong technical background, though their connection to his poker activities is not documented.

Shai Elbaz remains a relatively private figure in the poker world, with limited public tournament results. His career earnings and occasional WSOP Circuit appearances place him as a small-stakes player, while his professional life outside poker appears rooted in technology and business.
