Tuesday, March 11 delivered another busy day at the 2026 Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP), with 25 new champions crowned while the Super Tuesday events played through their Day 1 flights ahead of Wednesday’s finales.

One of the biggest stories of the day came from Patrick “pads1161” Leonard, who captured SCOOP 56-M: $215 FL 2-7 Triple Draw for $5,569. The win marked Leonard’s third title of the series and moved him joint-second on the all-time SCOOP titles list with 13.

Another familiar face in the winner’s circle was Andrey “Anjeyyy” Novak, who took down SCOOP 48-H: $1,050 NLHE Progressive KO Bounty Builder SHR for $38,367. It was Novak’s second title of the series, having already won the $1,050 Super Tuesday High Roller earlier in the festival.

Poker ambassador Ian “Simpioni” Simpson also grabbed a headline result, winning SCOOP 53-M: $55 NLHE Deep Stacks for $17,592. The victory arrives just weeks before the Irish Open, where Simpson famously won the Main Event in 2013.

Elsewhere, Alexander “joiso” Kostritsyn picked up his first SCOOP title since 2020 after winning SCOOP 54-H: $2,100 PLO Progressive KO for $40,862, while "Tapiscalle?" secured their second title of the series in SCOOP 50-H: $1,050 NLHE Single Re-Entry.

The rest of the day’s champions included "DanielNegroAno8", "KronoPP", "Perv.V7", "skat­tefar", "7jujuba7", "texasilainen", "DrawindDead", "RicoMinibAby", and "FollowTheBreath", among others, as nearly every winner on the day claimed a maiden SCOOP title.
