Justin Arnwine is sitting atop the leaderboard in Flight G today after bagging a massive 594,000 chips. "My style only has two conclusions. I either don't bag, or I bag the lead." Arnwine told PokerNews.

Arnwine also explained that becoming a father has changed the way he approaches the game, pushing him to turn up the aggression. “Now that my daughter’s born, I no longer patiently wait. I take, I can’t say every spot, but almost every spot.”

Arnwine has already racked up nearly $400,000 in tournament earnings in 2026, according to Hendon Mob, and he'll have a chance to add to that total when he returns for Day 2 on Sunday.
