Day 2 of the King’s Million Super Main Event Kicks Off at 5 p.m.
The 2026 King's Million European Poker Championship at King's Resort, Rozvadov continues today with Day 2 of the €1,150 Super Main Event, as the eight Day 1 flights converge for the first time. More then 7,000 entries were recorded through the final Day 1, generating a huge prize pool that has grown over €6,800,000 and smashing the €5,000,000 guarantee.
Leading the way is Nik, who bagged the chip lead at the conclusion of Day 1a. His stack of 1,554,000 is good for the overall chip lead at the start of Day 2. Nik is already enjoying an impressive series here in Rozvadov, having finished seventh in the €1,000 Mystery Bounty for €23,600 earlier this week.

All players taking to the felt will have secured a minimum cash of €2,300, but with the final payouts still being calculated, all eyes will remain on the first-place prize and the coveted King’s Royal Scepter.
