Phenom Poker PSOP 2026
Phenom Poker’s inaugural PSOP has awarded more than $185,000 across its first nine events, with opening tournaments exceeding guarantees. The 92-event series runs through November 15 and features two WSOP Paradise packages through its results-based leaderboard and volume-based Rally competition.

Phenom Poker’s first ever Phenom Series of Poker (PSOP) distributed more than $185,000 across its first nine events during the opening two days, with every early tournament action at least doubling its advertised guarantee.

The 92-event online series began October 23 and runs through November 15, featuring more than $1 million in advertised prizes. 

Buy-ins range from 25 to 5,000 CHIP, with more than 580 satellites and freerolls available across Hold’em, Omaha, draw, stud and mixed-game formats.

PSOP Opening Events Surpass Guarantees

The PSOP features two independent competitions offering packages for WSOP Paradise. The results-based PSOP Leaderboard awards a $16,000 package, including entry into the $10,000 8-Game Mix bracelet event. The top 150 leaderboard positions receive payouts.

In standings reported October 28, Cal led after winning the 200-CHIP Super Triple Draw Mix and 50-CHIP NLH 6-Max events. 

Mikhail “FAL1st” Yakovlev ranked second following victories in the 500-CHIP PLO Championship and 1,000-CHIP H.E.R.O.S. Masters. Brian Rast remained in contention after several deep runs, including a runner-up finish in the PLO Championship.

The volume-based PSOP Rally offers a separate $6,500 package, including a seat in the $2,750 Circuit Championship. 

King153246 led the early standings, followed by Phenom Team Pro Huck Seed and Yakovlev. Rast, Viktor “Isildur1” Blom and Phenom Stream Team member Scott “Pokerbrahs” Kenyon were also in contention.

Two WSOP Paradise Packages Available

The PSOP on Phenom Poker also adds two separate competitions offering WSOP Paradise packages. The results-based PSOP Leaderboard awards a $16,000 package, including entry into the $10,000 8-Game Mix bracelet event. The top 150 leaderboard spots will receive payouts.

The schedule combines traditional Hold’em and Omaha with mixed-game tournaments in Championship, Masters and knockout formats. Phenom ambassadors and invited professionals are also participating throughout the festival.

The series concludes November 15 with the 5,000-CHIP 9-Game Mix Masters High Roller, which carries a 50,000-CHIP guarantee. The event will close the 92-tournament festival instead of a conventional no-limit hold’em Main Event.
