Johannes Straver Wins Wynn Summer Classic Championship for $1.8 Million
Johannes Straver won the 2026 Wynn Summer Classic Championship, taking home $1,824,370. The tournament had 1,170 entries and a final prize pool of $11,466,000. Straver's previous top payday was $1,161,000 for placing fourth in a $150,000 high roller at the Triton Jeju stop. Straver secured 2,400 Card Player Player of the Year points as the champion.
Straver came into the final table as the second-shortest stack. Yi Ye three-bet preflop with A♥A♣ and two-time bracelet winner Jans Arends called with Q♠J♠. Ben Fan was soon all-in with Q♦9♦ trailing the 10♠10♦ of Arends. Mario Quilez got the last of his stack in with A♦6♦ against the 7♥7♣ for Skhulukhiya. The Dutch pro now has over $7.8 million in lifetime cashes. Skhulukhiya secured $1,224,978 for his efforts, growing his career haul to nearly $5.1 million in the process.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
