As a teenager, Andrew Robl discovered poker by watching ESPN’s coverage of the World Series of Poker.

During the summer between his senior year in high school and freshman year in college, he made between $70,000 and $80,000 playing online poker. [2]

At the age of 21, he moved to Las Vegas to pursue a profession in poker. [3]

In 2008, Andrew Robl appeared on season 4 on the classic poker TV show Poker After Dark on NBC.

In 2013, he won the Aussie Millions $100,000 Challenge for $1,055,699. [4]

Robl infamously lost a televised 532,000 chip hand of poker to Toby Lewis after his quad nines lost to quad queens during the PartyPoker.com World Open VI tournament. [5]

As of 2021, his total live tournament winnings exceed $5,800,000. [6] That sum was accumulated by cashing in 35 different events over the course of 12 years.
