A huge congratulations to all ten Week 5 qualifiers—your hard work and consistency across the Daily Deepstacks have paid off, and your seat in the Championship is secured!

Thank You to Everyone Who Played

We can’t sign off without expressing how grateful we are to every player who made this year’s PokerNews Deepstack Challenge such a success. Over the past month, we’ve seen thousands of players battle it out inside the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, creating unforgettable stories, thrilling final tables, and, of course, plenty of leaderboard drama.

From our Week 1 trailblazers like James Derosa and Jacob Baumgartner, to Week 3 standouts Amanda Soscia and Dominique Terzian, all the way to our latest qualifiers—this has been one of the most exciting and competitive years yet.

To every player who bought in, bagged chips, or just took a shot—thank you for making the Deepstack Challenge what it is. We’ve awarded over 50 Championship seats through the leaderboard alone, and now the stage is set for the biggest Deepstack event of the summer.

Good Luck in the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship

The final battle begins with the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship, where all of our qualifiers will have the chance to turn their leaderboard success into a life-changing payday.

Best of luck to everyone still in the hunt, and from the entire PokerNews team—thank you for being part of the 2025 PokerNews Deepstack Challenge.

We’ll see you at the tables!
