MrBeast Takes on High-Stakes Poker: Wins and Losses


YouTube star Jimmy “MrBeast” Donaldson has been streaming live high-stakes poker games with the hole cards shown for the viewers. Donaldson's YouTube channel has 69.2 million subscribers.

In his recent poker ventures, Donaldson won $25,000 against fellow YouTube producer Ludwig Ahgren. However, he lost a $100,000 battle against Twitch streamer moistcr1tikal.

Despite being a novice at poker, Donaldson has already made a significant impact. He participated in an episode of Poker after Dark with notable figures such as Phil Hellmuth, Doyle Brunson, Senator Ted Cruz, and Alexandra Botez.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
