Jeremy Ausmus has claimed another career milestone, winning Event #7: $15,700 No-Limit Hold’em at the 2026 Poker Masters for $278,400. The victory marks his tenth career PokerGO Tour (PGT) title, further cementing his standing as one of the circuit’s most consistent performers.
The six-time WSOP bracelet winner topped a 58-entry field that built an $870,000 prize pool. Ausmus defeated Aram Oganyan heads-up inside the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas to capture the trophy.
Five players returned for the final day, with Oganyan holding the chip lead and Adrian Mateos close behind. Ausmus started the day third in chips, while Cherish Andrews and Joe McKeehen rounded out the table. Ausmus later noted that even stack sizes meant little ICM pressure, allowing for looser play.
Ausmus eliminated Andrews in fifth place when his pocket nines held against her ace-queen. Mateos, who had entered the day leading the Purple Jacket standings, fell in fourth after running his short stack into Ausmus’s nines. McKeehen’s pocket nines then couldn’t overcome Ausmus’s kings, sending the 2015 WSOP Main Event champion out in third.
In heads-up play, Ausmus held a sizable lead but traded it back and forth with Oganyan before a key hand turned the tide. Rivering a straight with seven-five against Oganyan’s trip fours, Ausmus called a river shove to seize control. A few hands later, his queen-seven held against jack-five to seal the win.
Ausmus, who has spent the past year documenting his career through vlogging, said he plans to stay in Las Vegas this December rather than travel to the Bahamas, likely competing in events at Wynn Las Vegas and more PGT tournaments.
