Benjamin Chalot biography
Benjamin Chalot built his poker career the modern way: establishing himself first as a dominant online multi-table tournament grinder under the alias "frenchsniperrr" before making a full transition to live poker. His biggest online result came in 2019, when he banked $2,259,113 in the MILLIONS Online series, instantly elevating his profile within the French poker community.
Since then, based in Hungary while representing France, Chalot has built a steady live tournament resume, highlighted by multiple deep runs at Triton Monte Carlo in 2024 and back-to-back strong WSOP results in 2025 and 2026, including a 15th-place finish in the $10,000 6-Handed Championship and an 18th-place cash in the WSOP Europe Main Event.
With live earnings surpassing $917,700, he ranks among the top 125 players on France's all-time money list, and his highly disciplined, technical style continues to translate well from short-handed online formats to the live felt.
