Entries are closed for the first Main Event of 2026, and after a short presentation to award the API trophies for Top Senior (Julius Roque), Top Woman (Nu Teliani), and Top Player (Mike Malm, accepted by Weston Pring), as well as the Pure Poker Player of the Year awards from 2025 (Cam Stewart was the winner, and Pav Braich was second), Level 10 is now underway.
The final tally on the board for 1b is 199 entries. That is still an unofficial number, but if it holds, it will mean 25 bags later tonight. The combined field across both starting days looks to be 329 entries for prizes just under $310k, which should easily put $60k or more up top for the win tomorrow.
I’ll confirm all the numbers once I have eyes on the prizes, which should be within an hour or two.
