Cheesur is a Bosnian-American Kick streamer best known for casino slots content, chaos-style IRL streams, and a near-constant string of controversies. His real name is Nermin Dzaferovic (also spelled Džaferović or Jaferovic depending on transliteration). He confirmed the first name “Nermin” himself on stream, referencing his late grandfather Osman who named him. His TikTok bio simply says “Nermin.”

Cheesur’s Real Name and Background
His parents are named Rifet and Spomenka — distinctly Bosnian names — which aligns with a Bosnian heritage. Some sources list him as Bosnian-Serbian, but the food references, family details, and cultural cues on stream point clearly to Bosnian background. He grew up in the United States and currently lives in Miami as part of Adin Ross’s extended crew.
On height: he’s officially listed at 5’10”, but a viral January 2026 tweet from @SquidRon_ claimed he’s closer to 5’6″ and wears lifts. The internet has not let this go.

Streaming Career: From Twitch to Kick
Cheesur started streaming on Twitch on October 10, 2017, originally focused on NBA 2K (he played nearly every yearly release from 2K18 through 2K23). He gradually shifted into variety content, Just Chatting, and slots.
He hit Twitch Partner status and peaked at around 8,200 to 8,600 concurrent viewers in September 2022. His last Twitch stream was March 2, 2023, after which he migrated to Kick alongside Adin Ross’s group.
Kick stats:
| Metric | Figure |
|---|---|
| Kick followers | ~202,000 |
| Average viewers (Kick) | ~9,300 |
| All-time peak (Kick) | 483,380 concurrent viewers (November 30, 2025) |
| Second-highest peak | ~109,000 (August 2025) |
| Twitch followers (peak) | ~142,000 |
| Twitch peak CCV | ~8,600 (September 2022) |
| Kick join date | Early 2023 (full-time from March 2023) |
The November 2025 peak of 483K is almost certainly tied to a major collab or event with Adin Ross.
What Does Cheesur Stream?
Gambling is not the whole picture. A rough breakdown of his content mix:
- Slots and Casino: ~30–40% of streams
- Just Chatting / IRL / chaos content: large portion
- CS2 (Counter-Strike 2): regular
- NBA 2K: ongoing from his Twitch roots
- Call of Duty: occasional
- Elden Ring, Resident Evil: less frequent
- Chat Roulette / Omegle-style: used for viral moments
- Group game nights and big production events
He’s fundamentally a chaos streamer. The brand is built around pranks, beefs, dramatic confrontations, swatting incidents, and stunts like punishment wheels, $5,000 CS2 case openings, and all-nighter streams with friends.
Cheesur’s Gambling and Casino Content
When he gambles, it’s almost entirely high-volatility crypto-casino slots. He doesn’t do much poker. His most-played titles include:
- Perseus Vs. Medusa
- Wild Orbs
- Bloody Dawn
- Hand of Anubis
- Blood Diamond
- Stake Originals: Mines and Keno
- CS2 skin wagers and case openings
His long-time gambling sponsor was Stake (affiliate codes: “Cheesur” for Stake US, “CheesurVIP” for Stake.com). The standard disclaimer from gambling tracker sites applies: until he shows deposit receipts, assume he plays on a sponsored/house balance rather than real personal money.
Documented big wins include at least one $50,000 single-session hit and a max win on Wild Orbs.
In April 2026, VegasSlotsOnline reported he signed a $50 million per year deal with Rainbet, switching away from Stake. This followed Trainwreck publicly criticising Stake’s pay on Cheesur’s stream, and after Adin Ross had already moved to Rainbet in September 2025. The $50M figure is rumoured and not officially confirmed by Cheesur himself, but the platform switch is real.
Cheesur’s Kick Deal: How Much Is It Worth?
This is murky. Cheesur has never officially confirmed his contract value. Here’s what is known and what is claimed:
| Source | Claim |
|---|---|
| TikTok clips | Original deal ~$2.5 million |
| Cheesur on-stream (2024) | Kick CEO Eddie Craven promised him 1.5% equity (~$16.6M at $1B valuation) |
| Adin Ross on-stream | Suggested members earned $8–10M+ |
| December 2023 | Adin said some SSB contracts were terminated; Cheesur reportedly broke down |
| 2024 | Konvy confirmed he and Cheesur were resigned to new Kick deals |
| April 2026 | Reportedly signed $50M/year Rainbet deal (unconfirmed officially) |
For context: xQc signed a ~$100M Kick deal and Adin Ross has a $50M+ equity arrangement. Cheesur sits well below those tiers given his smaller audience.
Cheesur Net Worth
Be very skeptical of any site claiming Cheesur is worth $50 million — those figures almost certainly confuse him with Cheese Urrego (a Colombian YouTuber) or lounge musician Richard Cheese.
Grounded estimates:
| Estimate tier | Range | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Conservative | $750,000 – $2 million | Kick subs + modest deal + affiliate income |
| Mid-range | $3 – $5 million | Includes Stake sponsorship and brand deals |
| High end | $8 – $10 million | If Adin Ross’s on-stream figures are accurate |
His income sources include Kick subscriptions (95/5 creator split), his Kick base contract, Stake/Rainbet sponsorship money, brand deals (Raid Shadow Legends on Twitch; Power Slap in late 2024), and viewer donations.
Cheesur’s Girlfriend Kaelyn
His girlfriend — or ex, depending on when you’re reading this — is Kaelyn, strongly believed to be the lifestyle/Instagram model behind @baeeeeelyn, based in San Diego with around 409K Instagram followers. She previously dated FaZe Rug (Brian Awadis) on and off from 2016. The name “Kaelyn Walker” gets used frequently in Cheesur’s TikTok tags.
Other drama points: alleged cheating, butt-dial audio during a “business trip,” Adin Ross lie-detector confessions, prenup arguments, Drake adding Cheesur to his “opps list” and setting up a $1M boxing match with Adin.
YTG: What Does It Mean?
YTG stands for Yellow Teeth Gang. It’s the name of Cheesur’s community/loyals, and it shows up in virtually every stream title: “LATE NIGHT WITH YTG,” “GOOD MORNING YTG,” “CS WAGERS w/ YTG,” etc.
Cheesur’s Associates and Crew
His career runs through Adin Ross. He was a member of SSB (Stacey Step Bros, also given as Streets Sleep Boys), Adin’s collective that included Cuffem, Konvy, Shnaggyhose, Izi Prime, Zane, and Clavicular. SSB officially dissolved in April 2023 but the members still collab constantly.
Key relationships:
| Person | Relationship |
|---|---|
| Adin Ross | Core collaborator; Cheesur is part of his orbit; had brief fallout Dec 2023 |
| Cuffem | Close friend; tweeted support during the Feb 2026 crisis |
| Konvy | SSB member; confirmed both got resigned to Kick in 2024 |
| Clavicular | SSB member; appeared in Nick Fuentes game night collab |
| Yassuo (Moe) | Traveled together April 2024 |
| N3on | Associates; Cheesur made comments about N3on that caused Adin friction |
| Kai Cenat | Banned Cheesur permanently from his Twitch chat (Mafiathon 3, Sep 2 2025) |
| Drake | Added Cheesur to his “opps list”; Kaelyn drama; arranged Adin boxing match |
| Nick Fuentes | Controversial collab, March 10–13, 2024 |
| BruceDropEmOff | Beef in June 2024 over alleged racist comments |
| xQc | Was on call during March 2024 swatting incident |
The Nick Fuentes Collab
On March 10-13, 2024, Cheesur hosted Nick Fuentes on his Kick stream. Clips titled “Nick Fuentes Explains Jewish Influence, Holocaust Industry to Cheesur” circulated widely on Rumble, BitChute, and YouTube. There was also a joint game-night broadcast with Adin Ross, Nick Fuentes, Cuffem, and Clavicular. The backlash was significant. Kick did not ban him for it.
Swatting Incidents
Cheesur has been swatted at least three times, all in early 2024:
| Date | What happened |
|---|---|
| January 26, 2024 | Called cops on friends for egging his house, accidentally revealed address on muted stream; ~5 officers showed up |
| February 5, 2024 | Swatted live, 36 minutes into a stream; an officer walked into his room and checked his closet |
| March 25, 2024 | Held up a Skinny Louie burger bag with his address visible on the receipt during a stream with xQc and Adin on call |
After the March incident, Adin Ross called him a clown live on stream.
The Biden Snipe Comment
In January 2024, Cheesur said on stream: “I want to snipe Joe Biden in the head, on god… I want to be the sniper and I want to be the hero of America.” He went dark for about a week, returned on January 18, 2024, claiming people had knocked at his door (heavily implying Secret Service), and apologised saying he “almost ruined his life.” Some viewers dispute that the Secret Service visit actually happened.
Bans and Platform History
Twitch bans
| Date | Length | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| September 2020 | 3 days | Undisclosed |
| May 2021 | 13 days | Undisclosed |
Kick bans

|---|---|---|
| June 2024 | ~1 week | Stereotype/racist comments directed at BruceDropEmOff |
| March 11, 2025 | Unknown | Undisclosed; rumoured to be derogatory comment directed at a viewer |
Other platform notes: Adin Ross publicly demanded Kick ban Cheesur in April 2024 over a “p*do compilation” clip from a chat-roulette session. That ban did not happen. There is an active Change.org petition pushing for a permanent Kick ban.
The Polymarket Question
You’ll see people claim there were Polymarket or Kalshi prediction markets on whether Cheesur was alive or dead. After thorough research through those platforms and all major outlets covering the story, no documented Cheesur-specific prediction market has surfaced — no URL, screenshot, or volume data exists in the public record. Polymarket’s terms generally prohibit “is X person alive/dead” markets on private individuals. The “Polymarket” angle appears to be social media rumour, not a real market.
