American poker professional Joey Weissman won Event #3: $10,500 No-Limit Hold'em at the 2026 Poker Masters, banking $218,400. The victory marked his fifth career title on the PokerGO Tour (PGT), coming just days after Weissman claimed his second World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet in an online event.
The high-roller contest drew a competitive field of 78 entries, creating a total prize pool of $780,000. At the final table, Weissman outmaneuvered a stacked lineup that included runner-up Daniyal Gheba, Shannon Shorr, Brock Wilson, Dylan Linde, and Jeremy Ausmus.
