It was the final flight to the Main Event, and it was a huge one. With just shy of 5k entries in the final flight, the 2025 Main Event total was 8,694 entries for prizes of $83,564,370.
Greg Mueller led nearly 150 Canadian bags from the huge final flight, while over in Event #84, Santiago Plante flew the maple leaf all the way to the final table for a five-figure payout.
Mueller is the Biggest Canadian Heading to Day 2
Former pro hockey player Greg Mueller bagged the big Canadian stack from the final flight to the Main, but his 226k also puts him at the top of the Canadian list for all Day 1 flights. The closest other Canucks were James Morgan (2nd, 224,400, 1d), Yu Liu (3rd, 222,000, 1d), Anthony Kalanj (4th, 220,800, 1a), and Umang “Ronnie” Dattani (5th, 210,800, 1c).
In total, between the four starting flights, it looks like 231 Canadians will find a seat on Day 2 of the Main Event. Just missing out on the top five counts for Day 2 are KKPoker player representative Chris Alcindor (Who won a HORSE ring at the Calgary WSOP-C recently for his second), Lucas Greenwood, part of the “first family of Canadian poker”, and Jon Pardy.
Among the other Canadians to bag big for Day 2 are Sen Vijayaratnam, Jonathan Dwek, Jeffrey Mulder, Erik Cajelais, Thi “Annee” Ngo, and Elizabeth Boles. A couple of other notable Canadians who bagged up smaller stacks include Big Brother Canada winner and GGPoker streamer Kevin Martin, as well as Parker Talbot, who took to socials to announce his arrival at the series recently.

Plante Grabs Final Table Finish in $1k NLHE
The big Canadian cash from Saturday’s action belonged to Santiago Plante in Event #84: $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em. He had a solid lead in the game through much of Day 2 after bagging the 5th stack to start the day.
Plante led 9 Canadian cashers in the event with a 9th place finish for $20,781, with Gaetano Dimaria taking the 2nd-best Canadian cash in 32nd for $7,032.
