The nine-handed final table was streamed on GGPoker's YouTube channel, with special guest Alex Foxen joining host Jeff Gross in the commentary booth. Austria-based Dutchman Roeland Peeks sat down with 172 big blinds in his stack, 99 more than Aido in second place.
Each finalist was guaranteed $278,847, with the top four finishers securing prizes exceeding $1 million.
Astedt Sent Crashing Out in Ninth
The first elimination happened around 20 minutes into the action, and it was Swedish legend Niklas Astedt who fell by the wayside. Matheus Machado opened in late position, Astedt three-bet from the cutoff only for Machado to click it back. Astedt ripped in 32 big blinds and was snapped off. Astedt revealed pocket queens, which needed some help against his Brazilian opponent's pocket aces. That help never arrived, and Astedt's wait for a WSOP bracelet continues.
Alessandro De Michele was the next player heading for the exits. Down to less than seven big blinds, De Michele opened from late position with ace-nine, Machado three-bet enough with pocket queens to set De Michele all-in, and the Slovenia-based Italian obliged with a call. De Michele flopped a nine but was drawing dead on the turn after Machado flopped a set.
Seventh place went to the in-form Johannes Straver as the hour mark approached. It was Machado again who was the executioner. The Brazilian min-raised from early position with pocket tens before calling the 15 big blind three-bet jam from Straver, which he made with ace-queen in the big blind. Machado flopped a set to leave Straver drawing thin, and Straver was dead in the water on the turn.
Machado Sends A Fourth Victim to the Rail
Israel's Oshri Lahmani was the next player relieved of their stack; his sixth-place finish came with a $607,805 score. Lahmani was down 19 big blinds when he looked down at pocket jacks in the big blind. He watched as the hot-running Machado opened from early position before shoving all-in when the action got back to him. Machado looked him up with ace-king.
Lahmani looked set for a timely double-up with his jacks remaining the best hand up to and including the turn. However, a king on the river sent the Israeli to the rail, and Machado to second in the chip counts.
The final six-figure prize, $788,136, went to the dangerous Ole Schemion after he open-shoved for nine big blinds with ace-four from early position. The action folded to Christopher Nguyen in the big blind, who called with queen-jack. Both players improved to a pair on the flop, but Schemion's pair of fours trailed Nguyen's queens. Another queen on the turn locked in the pot for Nguyen, and Schemion fell short of his third gold bracelet.
Each of the remaining four players was now guaranteed to take home more than $1 million for their efforts and was within touching distance of a $2.23 million top prize.
Nguyen Can't Find the Win
Fourth place is as far as Nguyen advanced. He lost a significant chunk of his stack bluffing into Aido when the Spaniard had turned top pair. That hand left Nguyen with a shade under 13 big blinds. Nguyen held on for a while before another clash with Aido eliminated him.
Aido min-raised on the button with king-three of hearts, Nguyen called with king-eight of spades in the big blind, and the flop fell king-three-deuce with two diamonds. Nguyen check-raised a quarter-pot-sized bet from Aido, which Aido called. Another deuce and another diamond landed on the turn.
Nguyen checked, Aido bet, and Nguyen check-raised enough that he was pot-committed. Aido set Nguyen all-in and was called. A queen on the river was not one on Nguyen's three outs, and he was sent to the showers.
Peeks, the start-of-the-day chip leader, was the next casualty at the final table. The Dutchman lost more than half of his stack around the two-hour mark when he missed a flush draw when Aido had flopped trips.
Heads-Up Is Set
The last of Peeks' chips went in during a battle of the blinds with Machado. Peeks limped with ace-five, Machado three-bet with ace-ten before calling when Peeks ripped in 22 big blinds, exactly how Foxen predicted on the live stream. Neither player improved, and Machado's ten-kicker sent the GGMillion$ High Rollers event into the heads-up stage.
Aido held a substantial 108,433,938 (90 big blinds) to 66,966,062 (56 big blinds) chip lead over Macahdo at the start of heads-up play, and it proved too large a gap for the Brazilian to bridge.
Machado managed to double up after flopping a Wheel, but Aido reclaimed the lead in a hand where he flopped a set of deuces when Machado had paired his jack on the flop.
The final hand took place soon after that hand. Macaho limped with ace-trey from a 31 big blind stack. Aido three-bet with the dominating ace-seven of diamonds before calling Machado's shove.
The ace-seven held to send Machado home in second place, a finish worth $1,718,571, and to crown Aido the GGMillion$ High Rollers champion. Aido scooped $2,228,762 and bracelet number three, and that was that for the 2026 WSOP Online at GGPoker.
