Joseph "Joe" Serock is an American professional poker player [1] finishing eight in the 2024 $10,000 No Limit Texas Hold'em Championship World Series of Poker Event #81 [3] [4] and fifth in the 2021 $5,000 No Limit Texas Hold'em Online Championship World Series of Poker Online Event #27. [4]

Serock also holds a bracelet won in a pot limit Omaha online tournament in 2023. [1]

Serock plays a very aggressive game before the flop not uncommon of a raise for all his chips albeit sitting on a stack 20 times the big blind. This was shown in his exit hand in the Main Event when he 3-bet all-in for almost 20 big blinds over an opening min-raise and a call holding A♥ J♠ and eventually lost all his ships to Astedt (holding Q♥ Q♦). [3]

As of August 2024, Serocks's total live tournament winnings exceeds $5,800,000. [2]
