€1,150 EPC Super Main Event Title Up for Grabs on Final Day in Rozvadov
The wildly successful 2026 King's Million European Poker Championship will come to a close today, with the last Royal Scepters to be handed out at King’s Resort. Along with the final day of the massive €500 EPC Closer, there are still 16 players in contention for the largest title of the series in the €1,150 EPC Super Main Event.
Both events smashed the guarantees, with the Super Main Event seeing 7,013 entries and setting records along the way. The largest shares of the prize pool €6,855,207 are up for grabs, with everyone eyeing the top prize of €862,300. Action will resume at 1:00 p.m. local time, where the final two tables will be under the spotlight in the King's poker room.
Sitting in prime position entering the final day is Nik, who scooped a big pot to close out Day 3 and build a healthy chip lead with 77,200,000. That represents almost 130 big blinds, and almost a quarter of the chips in play. Nik also led the overall field after the opening flights, and sits well ahead of Day 1c leader Mourad Tounnouti (45,900,000) in second place.

The rest of the chase group is led by France's Christophe Vincent (39,000,000), sitting slightly ahead of Mike Neuens (37,800,000). The gap is a bit to Erdinc Guentay (27,100,000), who rounds out the top five on the leaderboard as players return to the felt.
One of the more notable stories of Day 3 was Hassibullah Hafizi (21,100,000), who sat down at the final three tables with half a big blind. Through a series of shoves, Hafizi managed to not only survive but gain ground on the field to sit in seventh position.
All 16 players have locked up at least €26,500, sitting on a pay jump when cards are back in the air. The tournament clock will restart with 35:00 remaining in Level 34, as blinds will remain at 300,000/600,000 along with a 600,000 big blind ante.
The remaining contenders will continue to navigate 70-minute levels, with the next scheduled break to occur once the final table of nine is reached. The prizes will continue to grow, and the six-figure scores begin in seventh place.
