After a Monday night that seemed like it would last forever, it was a rather rapid Tuesday for the 2026 WSOP Main Event final table. On Wednesday night, Lauri Saaskilahti will meet Lucas Jumalon in a heads-up clash for the 2026 WSOP Main Event championship. Unlike Michael Mizrachi’s rapid march to the title in 2025, the 2026 WSOP Main Event final table started as a plodding affair. The other departure on Monday, France’s Mario Boos, was around for much of the final table before his pocket eights fell to Saaskilahti’s K-9. While Jumalon still ruled the roost with 267.5 million and Saaskilahti rapidly closing with 217.5 million, Mueller (51 million) and Gagliano (17 million) needed divine intervention if they were to win the 2026 WSOP Main Event.
