Justin Vaysman wins Poker Masters Event 6
Justin Vaysman won Event 6 at the 2026 Poker Masters in Las Vegas despite dropping to 20,000 chips with five players left. After beating Sean Winter heads-up, Vaysman took his first PokerGO title.

Justin Vaysman won the $10,500 No Limit Hold'em event at the 2026 Poker Masters, played at the PokerGO Studio in Las Vegas. He had only 20,000 chips left when five players remained. With this win he took his first PokerGO title.
Stacks were close together going into the second day. Victoria Livschitz made the first two eliminations of the day. First she sent Sam Laskowitz out in seventh place, then Joey Weissman in sixth.
With the momentum going against Vaysman, back-to-back all-in hands that he won kept him in the game. Tony Gregg flopped a set of jacks, but Sean Winter completed a club flush with the last two cards, and Gregg went out in fifth place. Vaysman's ace-nine won a three-way all-in and tripled his chips. Shortly after, Brandon Wilson was eliminated in fourth place.
Livschitz ran into Winter's pair of kings and finished third. The final came down to a heads-up battle between Winter and Vaysman. Vaysman closed a big chip gap here as well and became the champion.
Vaysman said this was perhaps the biggest win of his career. He noted that he had never had such a big live tournament win before, and that this one came against the best players.
