Biography

Zachary Gruneberg is an American poker player who has three World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets and 11 WSOP Circuit rings. As of June 2026, Gruneberg had more than $2.5 million in live poker tournament earnings.

Gruneberg has live scores dating back to January 2009, but most of his results stem from 2014 onward. At the 2014 WSOP, Gruneberg reached three final tables, including a third-place finish in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Monster Stack for $270,299.

In September 2016, Gruneberg was the runner-up in the WPT Borgata Poker Open for a new career-best score worth $490,617. He also finished third for $31,533 in the 2018 WPT Borgata Winter Poker Open.

Gruneberg won his first bracelet in a $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Mystery Bounty event online in 2023. He added a second online bracelet 12 months later in a $400 NLHE PKO event. He completed his hat trick of gold bracelets in 2026 when he triumphed in the $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha Five Card event, becoming its inaugural champion and padding his bankroll with $271,553.

When asked how it felt to win a bracelet in the live arena, Gruneberg told PokerNews, "It means way more," he said when asked how a live bracelet stacks up against one won online. "Of course, they were really cool. I'd always wanted to win a bracelet, since watching Chris Moneymaker."

"It's a whole different experience," he added, noting that sharing the moment with friends on the rail made the victory even sweeter."
