How Unknown Poker Player Entered WSOP $100k High Roller Nearly for Free
A poker player with no recorded live poker tournament results entered the $100,000 High Roller Pot-Limit Omaha event at the 2026 World Series of Poker (WSOP) nearly for free.
Phillipp Mellon, who doesn't even have a page on The Hendon Mob, showed up with just five other players when the high-stakes tournament began. He sat down at the table to play against crushers such as Alex Foxen and Eelis Parssinen, both 2026 bracelet winners.
