Jeremy Ausmus won Event #7 at the 2026 Poker Masters in Las Vegas, taking the $278,400 first prize and reaching ten career titles on the PokerGO Tour. He defeated Aram Oganyan after a heads-up contest in which control changed hands before the closing deal.
The $15,700 no-limit hold'em tournament attracted 58 entries. That field generated an $870,000 prize pool, according to the official PGT result. Oganyan earned $174,000 as runner-up, while Joe McKeehen placed third for $121,800.
Ausmus began the final duel with the larger stack, but Oganyan briefly moved in front. A decisive hand then swung the match back. Ausmus made a straight on the river with seven-five and called an all-in bet from Oganyan, who held three fours.
The tournament ended a few hands later when Ausmus's queen-seven stayed ahead of Oganyan's jack-five. PokerNews reported that the result was Ausmus's third cash of this Poker Masters series.
The victory also strengthened his position in the race for the Purple Jacket awarded to the series leader. That contest remains open, so the Event #7 win secures the prize and tour milestone without deciding the overall Poker Masters standings.
