Sergio Aido has won his third WSOP bracelet in the 2026 WSOP Online $10,000 GGMillion$ High Rollers event. GGPoker's official recap, PokerNews and CardPlayer agree on the winner and the published $2,228,762 prize. Runner-up Matheus Machado received $1,718,571. The official recap dates the results September 29; the media reports appeared September 30.

Four seven-figure payouts

Roeland Peeks finished third for $1,325,271, while Christopher Nguyen took fourth for $1,021,994. The top four each exceeded $1 million. The published gap between first and second was $510,191, a difference between finishing prizes rather than the net value of an individual hand.

Starting stacks were not the final order

Peeks began the final table in the lead, with Aido second in chips; Aido and Machado ultimately contested the title. Some stack sizes and hand details differ across the reports. We use the consistently confirmed finishing order and payouts without turning unresolved action details into facts or assigning strategy grades to the players.

Identify the event and its date

This was an online WSOP high roller bracelet, not the live WSOP Main Event title. Published US-dollar prizes are not claims about after-tax income or net profit. The October 1 briefing retains the original event and reporting dates so readers can follow the official recap and independent coverage.

Local reading context

The official results are dated September 29 and the reports September 30. This October 1 edition covers a completed online high roller, rather than a live Main Event result.
