Mantas Bagočius leads with 725,000, more than the next two stacks combined. Tomas Dailidonis is in immediate danger with just 24,000, barely four big blinds.

Mantas Bagočius – 725,000: The big stack and the most decorated player in the field. Won the Kings of Vilnius €1,100 Main Event in November 2025 for €58,130 from 327 entries after a marathon 10-hour final day. One of Lithuania’s most prominent online MTT players. Enters the final table with nearly double the second-place stack.
Ģirts Niedrītis – 516,000: The deepest live tournament run of Niedrītis’s recorded career. An OlyBet regular from Latvia, he built his stack late in the day with back-to-back eliminations inside a single level. Everything from here is a new benchmark.
Egidijus Matonis – 380,000: The form player in the field. Led the 2026 WSOP Circuit Tallinn €1,500 Main Event final table chip counts before finishing 5th for €49,300 after four knockouts on Day 3. Active across the Lithuanian circuit throughout 2026.
Dāvis Modāns – 369,000: The most internationally active player at the table. Finished 9th in the 2025 WSOP $5,000 Mystery Bounty PLO for $33,280 and 6th at the Battle of Malta 2025 for €48,450. Won the €250 PLO4/PLO5 Progressive Bounty at the 2026 OlyBet Showdown Riga Spring Edition. Just returned to Riga after making the trip to the Diamond Poker Series in Tallinn last week.
Lasse Melby – 379,000: The only non-Baltic player at the table, based in Nybergsund, Norway. $51,576 in confirmed live earnings, best cash $8,569. A regular on the Baltic festival circuit with a 7th-place finish in the Festival Weekend Tallinn TORSES €555 Mixed Games Main Event in July 2026.
Jari Mahonen – 121,000: Twenty big blinds. The Finnish player reached the final nine despite a short stack that will demand early action. Needs a double quickly to stay relevant.
Jurgis Beinoras – 150,000: Won the 2026 OlyBet Showdown Vilnius €1,100 Main Event in May for €24,995 after a deal from 121 entries. Already put a cooler on chip leader Matonis during the final day. With 25 big blinds and a title on the board this year, Beinoras knows how to close.
Ēriks Krūmiņš – 156,000: Two WSOPC gold rings: the 2024 WSOP Circuit Tallinn €250 NLH Opening Event for €31,620 from 788 entries and the 2025 WSOP Circuit Tallinn €350 Online Ring Event for €11,162. Led the final 10 in the 2025 OlyBet Showdown Riga Voodoo AE Main Event before finishing 5th for €9,650. $168,093 in total live earnings. Short but dangerous, the deepest tournament pedigree at this table by some distance.
Tomas Dailidonis – 24,000: Four big blinds. Dalidonis has been a consistent presence at Lithuanian OlyBet events throughout 2026, and his place at this final table reflects that, but the math is about as brutal as it gets. Needs a miracle double on the first hand or close to it.
The nine remaining players have all locked up at least €1,360 with their eyes on the trophy and the €13,115 top prize. Latvia’s Patriks Svinka finished 11th for €1,170, and Estonia’s Hendrik Uibo followed him to the rail in 10th for the same amount.

poker.pro is delighted to be back in the historic Latvian capital of Riga to provide extensive coverage of the 2026 OlyBet Showdown Riga Voodoo Autumn Edition.
The festival is in full flow at Olympic Voodoo Casino, with five champions already crowned, and poker.pro will be on the floor covering all the action for the remainder of the festival as attention turns to the showpiece events, the €555 NLH Championship and the €1,100 Main Event.
Two starting flights of the €555 NLH Championship have already been completed, and we pick up the action from the start of Day 2, which kicks off at noon today, September 23. The starting flights attracted a total of 75 entries, creating a €35,625 prize pool, with 22 players managing to negotiate twelve 40-minute levels to progress to Day 2.
Those figures will rise further, with registration remaining open until the start of Level 15, while players who register on Day 2 will sit down to a 30,000 starting stack, with the clock set to 40-minute levels.
The Day 2 qualifiers are led by Tomas Bulkšas of Lithuania (225,000), with Gatis Reigass (212,000) and Ēriks Krūmiņš (141,500), both of Latvia, his closest challengers, and the leaderboard featuring plenty of big names from the Baltic poker scene.
Bulkšas is hunting his third OlyBet trophy, while Reigass is targeting his second win of the festival, after going wire-to-wire in the €250 NLH Opener to secure a €5,638 payday.
Krumins is also no stranger to OlyBet success, with two victories at previous Showdown festivals in Riga among his five recorded tournament wins, which include two WSOP Circuit Tallinn gold rings, namely the 2024 WSOP Circuit Tallinn €250 NLH Opening Event for €31,620 and the 2025 WSOP Circuit Tallinn €350 Online Ring Event for €11,162.

Adi El Barouch was all-in for 38,000 and at risk against Egidijus Matonis.
Adi El Barouch: A♣K♠
Egidijus Matonis: Q♥Q♦
It was the classic race, and El Barouch made trip kings across the K♣7♣4♠K♥3♥ runout to double.
At another table, a big pot had brewed between Janis Katkevics and Eriks Krumins.
Krumins called a bet of 30,000 into a pot of roughly 140,000 on the river, and mucked when Katkevics turned over a set of nines on a king-high board.
Adi El Barouch – 81,000
Egidijus Matonis – 15,000
Janis Katkevcis – 200,000

Cards were on their backs and stacks were in the middle, with Roberts Krigers all-in for 48,500 and at risk against Eriks Krumins.
Roberts Krigers: J♥J♣
Eriks Krumins: K♦K♣
Krigers was crushed, but he found a two-outer on the A♠Q♦J♠ flop.
The 10♦ rolled off on the turn to give Krumins the broadway straight, but it was followed by the Q♥ river to give Krigers the full house, to gasps of shock from the table.
Krigers clapped his hands and shouted “Yes!”, almost more in disbelief than celebration, and offered his condolences to Krumins when he sat back down, who accepted them graciously.
Roberts Krigers – 102,000
Eriks Krumins – 125,000

Jens Jensen was sweeping in a big pot of around 60,000, after he made a set with 8♠8♥ on a board of K♠8♦5♣3♦K♣ against Justas Vaiciulionis, whose cards had already been swept away.
Level 14 is underway, representing the last level of late registration.
Jens Jensen – 76,000

There was 27,000 in the middle on a flop of 10♣4♠2♠, in a hand between Baris Borsa and Gints Ozols.
Borsa fired out a bet of 12,000, and after a decent spell in the tank, Ozols raised to 35,000, leaving himself 30,000 behind.
Borsa didn’t take long before three-bet jamming with the covering stack, and Ozols called off.
Gints Ozols: J♠J♦
Baris Borsa: A♠K♠
Ozols was ahead, but had to dodge plenty of outs against Borsa’s overcards and flush draw.
The 6♣ turn was a brick, but the A♣ hit on the river to send Borsa the pot, and Ozols to the rail.
Ozols threw his hands up in disgust and shook his head forlornly as he exited the table.
Baris Borsa – 230,000
Gints Ozols – 0

Justas Vaiciulionis was in the big blind, and he took some time for thought before four-bet jamming for around 101,000, leading to snap-folds from all of his opponents.
Justas Vaiciulionis – 125,000
Eriks Krumins – 195,000

A pot of 48,000 had brewed by the river on a board of 9♦6♥3♠5♦7♠, in a button versus big blind spot between Baris Borsa and Egidijus Matonis.
Matonis checked, and Borsa fired out a bet of 22,000, sending Matonis into the tank.
Matonis, who had 37,500 behind, spent at least three minutes counting out his stack, peering at the board, and giving his opponent periodic sideway glances. Eventually he said “I don’t know what to do”, and folded.
Baris Borsa – 138,000
Egidijus Matonis – 37,500

Action folded to Eduards Rakuss in the small blind, who jammed for 19,500.
Darius Narmontas was in the big blind, just covering his opponent, and spent a fair bit of time in the tank before making a somewhat reluctant call.
Eduards Rakuss: K♥J♥
Darius Naromontas: K♣10♠
Rakuss had Narmontas pipped, and his better kicker played as both players rivered a king on the 9♥4♦2♠6♠K♠ runout.
Eduards Rakuss – 42,000
Darius Narmontas – 6,000

Ryhor Karapanau opened to 3,000 from middle position, and was met with a three-bet to 9,500 from Mantas Bagocius in the cutoff.
Vladislavs Petrovs was in the small blind, and he produced a cold four-bet to 20,000 from the small blind. Karapanau quickly folded, and after some thought, Bagocius followed suit.
Vladislavs Petrovs – 82,000

On the Q♠9♦7♥ flop, Vaiciulionis continued with a bet of 12,000, which failed to dispose of Krumins.
The 6♦ turn was checked to the 4♥ river, where Vaiciulionis check-folded versus a bet of 33,000 from Krumins.
Eriks Krumins – 141,000

After the completion of two starting flights, a total of 23 players have qualified for Day 2 of the €1,100 Main Event at the 2026 OlyBet Showdown Riga Voodoo Autumn Edition, led by French player Baptiste Caim (211,500), who is closely followed by Ryhor Karapanau of Belarus (178,500) and Nikita Zarovs of Latvia (156,500).
Day 2 gets underway at 2 p.m. on September 26. The clock will be increased to 60-minute levels, and late registration remains open until the start of Level 15, with Day 2 entrants sitting down to a 40,000 starting stack.
Caim has a remarkable record in the Baltics, bagging four trophies in various OlyBet events since October 2025 alongside ten final table appearances, and will be a tough player to stop.
Karapanau boasts recorded cashes of almost $250,000, his biggest score being a 30th-place finish at EPT Barcelona in 2022, and his sole live tournament win came in the OlyBet Christmas Series in Riga in 2025.
Zarovs finished third in the Main Event of the Olybet Showdown Voodoo Spring Edition in March this year, banking his biggest recorded score of €16,810, and will no doubt be desperate to turn bronze into gold this time around.
The top ten counts at the start of Day 2 are detailed below, with plenty of other quality players remaining in the mix, including Kaspars Mallons (112,500), Justas Vaiciulionis (106,000) and Tomas Bulksas (95,000), all of whom already have at least one OlyBet trophy at home.

Roberts Krigers opened to 2,500 from early position, and received calls from Ryhor Karapanau in the cutoff and Saku Naesman in the big blind.
Action was checked to Karapanau on the 6♥5♣2♥ flop, who fired out a bet of 3,700.
Only Naesman called to see the J♠ turn, where he checked to his opponent. Karapanau fired out a bet of 11,000, and Naesman responded with a check-jam to 47,200.
Karapanau spent a bit of time in the tank, but made the call. As soon as he did, Naesman put his head in his hands, and chucked his cards towards the muck.
As it was an all-in, they were retrieved and tabled.
Saku Naesman: 10♣7♥
Ryhor Karapanau: K♣J♣
Naesman was drawing stone dead against Karapanau’s top pair, and the 10♠ river completed the board, sending Karapanau a huge pot and vaulting him to the top of the counts.

Saku Naesman – 0

There was 38,000 in the middle on a completed board of 10♥9♥6♥4♦J♦ in a hand between Baptiste Caim in the cutoff and Tomas Dailidonis in the small blind.
Dailidonis led out with a bet of 20,000, and Caim was in the tank.
After a while he shook his head, and said “You’ll show if I fold?” Dailidonis shrugged and said “One.”
He may have been better keeping quiet, as Caim immediately called, and Dailidonis said “Good call”, and mucked his hand, Caim taking the pot without having to show his cards.
Caim now appears to be the chip leader, while Dailidonis’ previously huge stack has dwindled significantly.
Baptiste Caim – 185,000

The 7♦6♥3♣ flpp was checked through to the Q♦ turn, where action was checked to Bulksas, who fired out a bet of 3,200.
Caim responded with a raise to 12,200, and both Jensen and Zakas got out of the way.
Bulksas called however to see the 3♠ river, where he checked, and was faced with a bet of 16,600 from Caim.
Bulksas spent a bit of time in the tank before he made the call, and he tapped the table and mucked when Caim flipped over 7♣7♥ for a full house.
Baptiste Caim – 152,000

Justas Vaiciulionis has jumped straight back in, and here opened to 2,500 under the gun, receiving calls from Tomas Bulksas in the next seat and Mariam Bashir in the big blind.
The A♥9♣3♦ flop was checked to the Q♠ turn, where action was checked to Vaiciulionis.
He fired out a bet of 4,500, and Bulksas called, before Bashir check-jammed for 15,600.
Both of her opponents called to see the 3♣ river. Vaiciulionis checked to Bulksas, who slid out a bet of 17,500. Vaiciulionis hated the spot he found himself in, and after around 90 seconds of contemplation, flashed the A♠ as he folded.
Bashir confidently tabled A♣3♥ for the full house, but Bulksas had a better one with 9♠9♣ in a brutal hand.
It took Bashir a moment to realize she was beaten, and she offered good luck to the table as she departed.
Tomas Bulksas – 124,000

Narmontas took a bit of time before folding, leaving Matonis and Bagocius to fight it out.
Egidijus Matonis: A♠K♣
Mantas Bagocius: K♠K♣
Matonis looked in trouble, but the ace was in the window on the A♥7♥4♦ flop, and Bagocius could not find a one-outer on the remaining 3♣10♥ runout.
Narmontas suggested he had folded pocket jacks.
Egidijus Matonis – 54,900

With around 43,000 in the middle on a board of K♠Q♦4♥3♦4♠, Saku Naesman was all-in from the big blind, and Roberts Krigers was in the blender in early position.
Krigers had around 19,000 behind, and after about 90 seconds, sent his cards to the muck.
“Show the bluff!” asked a table mate, and Krigers said “No, I want to sleep tonight!”
Naesman smiled and shook his head, and suggested it was not a bluff while not revealing his holding.
Saku Naesman – 82,000
Roberts Krigers – 19,000

Tomas Dailidonis and Saku Naesman, two of the biggest stacks in the tournament, are seated together at Table 6, and a battle of the blinds quickly got out of hand, to the benefit of Dailidonis.
Dailidonis raised to 2,700 from the small blind, and Naesman responded with an almost instant three-bet to 7,500.
Dailidonis quickly four-bet to 21,000, and almost before his chips hit the middle, Naesman had announced “All-in” with the covering stack.
Dailidonis was playing 88,700 total, over 100 big blinds, and snap-called. Naesman started giggling, and Dailidonis said “I don’t have much.”
Tomas Dailidonis: A♠K♠
Saku Naesman: A♥10♣
Naesman was crushed, and there was no miracle escape on the J♥8♠6♥7♠Q♥ runout, despite picking up additional outs on the turn, sending a huge pot to Dailidonis.
“F*ck around and find out”, quipped table mate Matti Lasanen.
Tomas Dailidonis – 179,400
Saku Naesman – 54,000

Arturas Dauksevic: J♥7♥
Baptiste Caim: A♣K♠
Dauksevic was behind but live, and he hit the front on the Q♣J♦5♦ flop.
However the A♦ hit on the turn to give Caim the lead, and the 4♣ river sent Dauksevic to the rail.
Baptiste Caim – 58,000
Arturas Dauksevic – 0

Naesman called to see the A♦ turn, where he led out with a bet of 3,000, leading to a swift fold from Piekis.
Saku Naesman – 140,000

With 5,400 in the middle on a board of Q♥J♥2♦9♥, Baptiste Caim led out with a bet of 2,200 from the small blind, and was met with a raise to 6,600 from Mariam Bashir in the big blind.
Caim called to see the J♦ river, which was checked through, much to Caim’s disappointment.
He tabled Q♠J♠ for the full house, and Bashir had found a good check back with 10♥9♥ for the flush.

Kaspars Renga opened to 1,300 from early position, and received a call from Arturas Dauksevic on the button, before Aigars Gibuzis produced a three-bet to 3,600 from the big blind.
Both of his opponents called to see the Q♣5♠2♦ flop, where action was checked to Renga, who slid out a bet of 3,600. Dauksevic folded, but Gibuzis called.
The 10♣ hit on the turn, and Gibuzis checked again. Renga fired out a bet of 10,600, sending Gibuzis into the tank.
After asking to see his opponent’s stack, and fiddling with his chips for a while, Gibuzis folded.
The players are about to be sent on their second 15-minute break of the day.
Kaspars Renga – 45,000
Aigars Gibuzis – 39,000
