The $1.3 million he won is his second six-figure cash, just behind the $1,292,000 he won for winning the $50,000 high roller event at World Series of Poker Paradise in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 28-year-old German stood on top of a field of 19 players (eight rebuys) who generated a prize pool of $3 million. Only the top four were paid. Runner-up was Kayhan Mokri Roshanfekr, Norway’s all-time money leader with $24 million in tournament cashes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Roshanfekr’s largest cash of $7.7 million came with winning the 2025 $250,000 Triton Super-High Roller event at World Series of Poker Paradise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jamie Dwan made it to third, four days before winning the \u20ac25,000 event for $156,548 in the same series. Dwan had a fantastic EPT Barcelona, making five final tables in six cashes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Byron Kaverman pushed his lifetime cash title toward the $23 million mark with a fourth-place finish. It’s his best showing since finishing third in a World Poker Tour event in Florida last year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
