Biography

Ole Schemion is a German poker player. He has won both World Poker Tour and World Series of Poker titles in a career during which he has amassed over $16 million in earnings.

Schemion is a former Global Poker Index #1, having held the title for 18 weeks straight between December 2014 and April 2015.

Poker Achievements

Schemion shot to prominence in late 2012 after winning the Partouche Poker Tour Main Event for over 1.1 million. He followed that up with victory in the 2012 Master Classics of Poker Main Event.

His success continued into 2013, with three side event wins at EPT Monte Carlo, another final table in the Master Classics of Poker and a final-table appearance at the EPT Prague Main Event.

Schemion was tipped for success at 2014 WSOP after winning the EPT San Remo 10,300 High Roller and cashing in the the EPT Monte Carlo Super High Roller, but he didn't cash at that year's WSOP. He did however win an Aria $100k Super High Roller for over $1 million.

Other standout performances from Schemion include a second-place finish in the 2015 Aussie Millions $100,000 Challenge, and a final table in the EPT Monte Carlo Main Event in 2015.

He followed that up with victory in the 2016 EPT Monte Carlo Super High Roller, narrowly missing out on the High Roller title having to settle for second place.

Monte Carlo has continually been a place where Schemion has enjoyed success including at the 2017 PokerStars Championship. That year also saw him record his first WSOP cash in the Monster Stack.

His 2018 begun with more success, winning the World Poker Tour European Championship on home soil.

Schemion would make the final table of the EPT Monte Carlo Super High Roller yet again, before making his second EPT final table, finishing eighth. In 2019, Schemion enjoyed more success. He won the $1,100 PCA National as well as the Baccarat Crystal WPT Tournamen of Champions, before cashin gin the WSOP Europe Diamond High Roller and final-tabling the Master Classics of Poker Main Event again.

When live poker resumed in 2021, Schemion finally grabbed his first WSOP bracelet in Event #79: $1,979 No Limit Hold'em - Poker Hall of Fame Bounty for $172,499.

Its not too often in live tournaments that you come in first place, said Schemion after his win. Its what we all try to do but it feels very good to run through a good field and win one.

Later that year, Schemion narrowly missed out on a second bracelet after a runner-up finishing Event 12: 2,000 8-Game Mix at the 2021 WSOP Europe.

Online Poker Achievements

Away from the live felt, Schemion has amassed four SCOOP titles over the course of his career, with the first two in 2018 along with his first WCOOP title.

His second two SCOOP titles came in 2020.

WPT Global Poker Games

1. What is a flight tournament?

A flight tournament has multiple qualifiers (or Day 1s), and the top X% (usually 10-20%) of each flight advance to the final day. When a flight reaches that percentage, it ends automatically, and the remaining players move to the final day (chips are carried over). Flights may also end based on level, time, or remaining players. Some flights may not award prizes, while others do. After all flights end, the final day starts as scheduled. You must buy in for each flight; direct entry to the final day is not allowed. You can enter multiple flights in the same tournament, but only your largest chip stack carries over if you qualify more than once.

2. What is a satellite tournament?

A satellite tournament is a tournament where you can win entry to a major tournament for a small buy-in. The entry fee is usually 10-20% of the major tournament. Multiple entries may be awarded depending on the number of participants. Example: In an $11 ($10+$1) satellite, one ticket to a $110 ($100+$10) tournament is awarded for every 11 players. Some satellites award generic tickets that can be used for any tournament with the same buy-in, not just a specific tournament.

3. What is a guaranteed tournament?

A guaranteed tournament is a tournament where a certain prize pool is guaranteed regardless of the number of players. If there are more players, the prize pool increases, but it will not fall below the guaranteed minimum. Example: In a $55 ($50+$5) tournament with a $2,000 guarantee, even with 22 players, $2,000 is paid out. With 63 players, $3,150 (63×$50) is paid out.

4. How do I use tournament tickets in my backpack?

To use a ticket, select a tournament with the same value as your ticket from the 'Tournaments' tab in the lobby and register.

5. Which hands are eligible for the cash game jackpot?

Each jackpot table displays the prize for each qualifying hand. Players must use both hole cards and have a winning hand to qualify for the cumulative jackpot.

Fairness and Security

1. What is WPT Global's fairness algorithm?

Our fairness algorithm is designed to ensure that all players have an equal chance of winning and to enhance the player experience. By limiting the number of skilled players at each table, we provide new players with a fair chance of winning. You will never be seated with eight pros at the same table and will mainly play against others of similar skill. Even for pros, limiting the number of other pros provides a better experience. Whether you are a new, recreational, or professional player, you will find your preferred game in one of the largest cash game player pools.

2. How does WPT Global ensure safety and reliability?

Our team consists of over 50 industry experts and former professional poker players. We use AI detection tools to monitor for bots, RTAs, collusion, and multi-accounting 24/7/365. Every security case is reviewed independently by at least two team members to ensure accurate and objective conclusions.
