2026 Summer Super Stack – Event #3: $340 Deepstack NLH

Level:	1 (100/100/100)
Entries:	36/36
Prizes:	$10,260
Local Time:	2:25 PM

Less than 5 minutes remain in Level 1, and the field is at 36. That puts the prizes over $10k already, and I’m expecting the field size to at least double for today’s game.

Day 1a is traditionally the smallest flight of the game, but with this start, 1a could easily hit 100 or more. Among the players in the mix early today are Todd “The Rock”, Hassan Issa, Tom Shantz, Allison Senycz, Jeff Clarke, Karin Schulenborg, Dale Campbell, Jarret Gray (who was 3rd in last night’s $230), Todd Oakley, Phil Clingo, and Jacqueline Ray.

2025 Spring Super Stack – Event #3: $340 Deepstack ($300 + $40)

Date:	Day 1a: Aug 6, 2 PM
Blinds:	30 Minutes
Starting Stack:	25k
Late Entry:	11 Levels (Entries close about 8:45 PM)
Day 1 Ends:	10% of the Starting Field; Players MUST bag chips to get paid

The first multi-flight game of the Summer Super Stack kicks off with the first of three starting flights on Thursday at 2 PM. Players start with 25k in chips, with levels lasting 30 minutes on Day 1 and most of Day 2 (blinds go to 40 minutes with 18 players remaining on Day 2).

Buy-ins are open for 11 levels of poker. With the breaks included, that should mean the end of entries at about 8:45 PM. After that, they’ll play down to 10% of the starting field, no matter how long that takes, with Day 2 blinds starting at the earliest Day 1 endpoint.

Thursday is the first of three flights to Sunday’s Day 2. Friday & Saturday also feature Day 1 flights, and the final field after three days should easily blow past 300 entries.

Last July, Adam Cygman took down Event #3 over a field of 560 entries. That put the total prizes just shy of $160k, with Cygman taking $31,450 for 1st, and Seamus McGearty grabbing second place for $18,434

In the Spring series this year, Todd Oakley took down Phillip Clingo after a heads-up deal in Event #3. The game got 443 entries in April, for prizes of almost $126k.
