Wynn Summer Classic: $1.6k NLH Prize Pool Reaches $3.4m; Seniors Ends In 3-Way Chop

Wednesday (June 11), was all about the $1,600 No Limit Hold’em event at the 2025 Wynn Summer Classic.

The final two flights of the $2,500,000 guaranteed event dominated the Wynn’s tournament space while the last two tables of the $10,000 Seniors No Limit Hold’em event played down to a winner.

Ernest Bush came into the final day of the $10,000 Seniors No Limit Hold’em event with an overwhelming chip lead. His stack contained 1,178,000 in chips while the next biggest stack (in front of Michael Lang) contained just 616,000.

At the bottom of the pile, Konstantinos Nanos had the small stack with 113,000 in chips in front of him.

Despite his paucity of chips, Nanos was able to hang in on the felt while Michael Farris (10th - $23,750) and Curt Kohlberg (11th - $23,750) were knocked out, bringing the field down to the final table.

When the final table eventually reached the final three players, they struck an agreement for an even split. As a result of this deal, Phong Nguyen , Ernest Bush, and Jun Liu all earned $186,026 each.

Then they played on with Nguyen emerging as the final winner, earning himself one of the huge Wynn Summer Classic trophies to go with the cash.

Prize Pool Of $3.4m Up For Grabs In $1.6k No Limit Hold'em

With all six Day 1 flights tallied up, the prize pool for the $1,600 No Limit Hold’em came to $3,439,150. This is by far the biggest prize pool of the festival so far.

The vast majority of those funds came from the players who entered during yesterday’s Day 1E and Day 1F Turbo flights. The huge turnout brought the number of entries up to 2,405.

The number of survivors from all six Day 1 flights came to 298 players, all of whom will return later today for Day 2.

Their leader is Alexandre Reard with 1,200,000 in chips. However, he cannot get too comfortable, with so much to play for and Hang Xu close behind him in second place with 943,000 in chips.
