The 2026 World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, now in its 57th edition, has seen a series of historic accomplishments as players from around the world compete for prestigious bracelets and major cash prizes at the Horseshoe and Paris venues.
Spain’s Adrian Mateos set a new record, becoming the youngest player to win six WSOP bracelets after triumphing in the $250,000 Super High Roller event, earning $4,334,411. Meanwhile, Juan Rodriguez of Peru claimed his first bracelet and $673,011 in the $5,000 Seniors High Roller, outlasting 844 entrants in a highly competitive field.
The series also celebrated Sebastian Pauli of Germany, who won his first bracelet in the $1,500 Razz event, and Daniel Aharoni from New York, who captured the $10,000 Big O Championship. In other events, the United Kingdom’s Matthew Moss earned his first victory in the $800 8-Handed Deepstack, while Eddie Blumenthal won the $2,500 Mixed Omaha Hi-Lo/Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo event.
A notable highlight this week was the achievement of Alex Foxen, who, with his win in the $10,000 Super Turbo Bounty, joined his wife, Kristen Foxen, among the rare married couples to both win bracelets during the same series.
Looking ahead, the WSOP schedule includes the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. Championship, the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha, and the $500 Salute to Warriors, an annual event supporting United States veterans, with proceeds benefiting charitable organizations.
Fans can follow the action through ESPN’s broadcasts, the WSOP YouTube channel, and real-time updates via the WSOP Live app. The 2026 series continues to reinforce its reputation as one of the most prominent stages in the poker world.
