Sergio Aido is now a three-time bracelet winner, making him the second-most decorated World Series of Poker player from his home country of Spain. He is also second on the Spanish all-time money list with $29.2 million. In both of those cases he trails only Adrian Mateos, who boasts six bracelets and $72.4 million in career earnings.
Aido’s latest victory saw him defeat a field of 1,754 entries in the 2026 WSOP Online GGMillion$ $10,000 no-limit hold’em high roller to earn his third bracelet and $2,228,762. This was the second time he’s won this particular tournament, having bested a field of 1,433 back in 2024 for his second piece of WSOP hardware. His lone live bracelet win came in the summer of 2024, when he took down a $50,000 high roller in Las Vegas for $2 million.

Niklas Astedt was the first to fall, with pocket queens running into pocket aces for Matheus Machado. The Swedish online legend and 2024 WSOP main event third-place finisher earned $278,847 as the ninth-place finisher. Machado also knocked out Alessandro De Michele (8th – $361,528), Johannes Straver (7th – $468,752), and Oshri Lahmani (6th – $607,805) to move into second chip position going into five-handed action.
Two-time bracelet winner Ole Schemion then bowed out in fifth place ($788,136) when his A♠4♥ failed to hold against the Q♣J♠ of Christopher Nguyen, who made trip queens to ensure at least $1 million in earnings for the remaining four contenders.
The Final Four
Nguyen got all-in on a K♦3♦2♣2♦ board with K♠8♠ trailing the K♥3♥ of Aido. The Q♦ river was no help to the Austrian bracelet winner, who earned $1,021,994 as the fourth-place finisher.
Aido took a healthy lead into three-handed action. He then pulled even further ahead as the battle wore on. Machado scored the penultimate knockout of the day, with A♦10♥ holding off A♥5♦ for Peeks. Neither player connected with the queen-high runout and Peeks was eliminated in third place ($1,325,271).
Heads-up play began with 108.4 million for Aido and 70 million for Machado. The gap widened as the match wore on, with Aido holding roughly a 3:1 lead when the final hand of the tournament was dealt. Machado limped the button for 1,400,000 with A♥3♦ and Aido raised to 4,900,000 holding A♦7♦. Machado limp-shoved for 37,643,662 and Aido made the call. The board came down J♣5♠2♦6♦10♥ and Aido’s superior side card played to earn him the pot and the title.
Machado walked away with $1,718,571 as the runner-up.
