The defending champion Thomas Eychenne has just entered the Main Event field and is sitting with a fresh starting stack of 30,000.
Just hours ago, Eychenne took down the PokerStars Open High Roller for €589,395, but there wasn't much time for a victory lap as he was keen to get straight back to his second home on the felt.
Eychenne is also the defending champion of the Main Event, having conquered a field of 2,045 entries in 2025 to collect a career-best score of €1,217,175.
