Jeremy Ausmus has won Event 7 of the 2026 Poker Masters, collecting $278,400 and reaching ten career PokerGO Tour titles. The Las Vegas professional beat a 58-entry field in the $15,700 no-limit hold’em tournament at the PokerGO Studio.
A balanced final table turns Ausmus’s way
PokerNews reported that Ausmus started the final day third in chips among five remaining players. Cherish Andrews was the first of that group to leave, followed by Adrian Mateos and Joe McKeehen as Ausmus built momentum.
The title came down to a heads-up match with Aram Oganyan. The lead moved between them before Ausmus took control in a large river pot and closed the tournament a few hands later. Oganyan earned $174,000 as runner-up, while the event’s total prize pool reached $870,000.
A tenth tour trophy
Card Player’s account also records the victory as Ausmus’s tenth PGT title and his third cash of the series. The result took his reported live tournament earnings beyond $31 million.
The milestone is notable because it reflects repeated results across high-level events, but one tournament finish does not make future outcomes predictable. Poker remains a game of incomplete information and variance, and entry fees should never be treated as guaranteed returns.
