WSOP Super Circuit Online Main Event – GGMillion$ Season 2026 Episode 12

This week, the traditional $10,000-entry GGMillion$ switched to the WSOP Super Circuit GGMillion$ High Roller, as a prize pool of over $12.5 million was fought over in the company of regular host Jeff Gross and a very special guest co-commentator, the seven-time WSOP bracelet winner and Poker Hall of Famer, Daniel Negreanu. With nine incredible players in their seats, the action was red hot as it raced to a dramatic conclusion and a $1.7 million top prize on GGPoker’s YouTube channel.

Pre-Match Betting Odds

Before the action got underway, talk turned to the pre-match betting odds, with players and poker fans able to bet in the GGPoker client on their favorites at the felt. There was a clear favorite in betting terms this week, with the Russian player Kirill Shcherbakov in a big lead on 110 big blinds. That made him an overwhelming favorite at odds of 2.84 in the GGPoker client.

Behind the final table leader, only the Mexican player Checo Pacheco had over half of Shcherbakov’s stack with his 62 big blind stack, making him a 5.78 chance in betting terms. Third in chips was the Brazilian Matheus Machado (38BB/7.9), while the Australian Joshua McCully (37BB/8.52) was a decent chance as an outside bet. 

Elsewhere in the betting odds, Malaysian player ‘kikilala88’ was on 28 big blinds at odds of 13.86. The experienced Portuguese Joao Vieira was still a threat with 28 big blinds at odds of 10.36. Our outright pick for the win, however, was another player who had reached multiple GGMillion$ final tables. The Lebanese player, with 26 big blinds, Rayan Chamas, a.k.a. ‘Beriuzy’, was available at tempting odds of 11.38. Chinese player ‘littlepapi’ (23BB/16.78) and Danish pro Daniel Petersen (15BB/20.74) brought up the rear with hope more than expectation of glory.

Key Moments from the Felt

Daniel Petersen was the first player to bust from the final table, as he won $216,596 in ninth place. On a flop of 7-6-4 with 2 hearts, he got his stack into the middle (1:19:30) with jack-eight representing two overcards and a straight draw. But ‘kikilala88’ made a gutsy and correct call with queen-ten of hearts. A five of spades on the turn hit the gutshot for Petersen and was ready to double up after sitting with just a 24% shot to do so from the flop. An ace of hearts on the river reversed that luck and gave the Malaysian a flush to reduce the field to eight in the cruelest of ways. 

Joshua McCully was a surprise second elimination, committing all of his stack pre-flop with king-ten. Unfortunately for the Aussie, he was up against the pocket queens of Checo Pacheco, and the Mexican held with ease through the 6-6-4-4-J board. McCully cashed for $279,586 in eighth place.

Joao Vieira was the next player to leave when he lost a crucial flip to exit in seventh place for $361,271. All-in with pocket fours, the Portuguese player needed to hold against the ace-six of Brazil’s Matheus Machado. It took until the river, but an ‘ace from space’ landed to take out Vieira as Machado’s stock in the game grew. 

‘Beriuzy’ was the next player to leave the party (1:43:45), winning $467,206 in sixth place after being the latest to lose a flip, king-seven being unable to improve enough against the pocket sixes of ‘kikilala88’. A board of J-6-5-4-2 gave the Lebanese player a turned shot at a straight, but he failed to connect on the river. 

A fascinating ‘Mystery Hand’ where the cards of ‘littlepapi’ weren’t revealed until the river saw ‘kikilala88’ bust in fifth place for $604,586. (2:22:45) On a flop of A-8-7, GTO Wizard recommended a medium bet for the Malaysian with ace-queen, which they followed. A queen on the turn saw ‘kikilala88’ improve to 2-pair and bet roughly half the pot before the last card, the eight of diamonds, appeared on the river. On the third diamond, ‘littlepapi’ shoved. With two pair, ‘kikilala88’ called to their doom as the Chinese player turned over seven-six in diamonds.

With just eight big blinds remaining after a big early position raise, Checo Pacheco committed his stack pre-flop with the ten-nine of spades. The overnight chip leader, Kirill Shcherbakov, called with ace-jack and was able to hold through the board despite flush and straight draws to the river. The Mexican won $782,745 in fourth place, and he was soon joined on the rail by Matheus Machado. The Brazillian’s ace-king was overtaken by Shcherbakov’s king-jack as a dramatic board of A-Q-4-9-T gave the Russian a miraculous straight. 

That hand gave Shcherbakov a stack of 57.3 million going into the final duel, but that was still well behind the resurgent ‘littlepapi’, who was sitting comfortably on 72.1m chips. The Russian quickly evened up the stacks but let go of half his stack on a board of 7-5-3-5-J when betting big with three-four for a busted straight draw and bottom pair. The Chinese player called and won not only the pot but a 3:1 chip lead. Soon, that lead grew to more than 5:1, and Shcherbakov was sitting with just 10 big blinds to his name. Then, on a board of A-9-8-3-3, it was all over. (3:09:00) Shcherbakov had bet and called in the hand, so when ‘littlepapi’ shoved with a full house on the river, the Russian suspected king-high might be good enough and called it off. That wasn’t the case, and the tournament was over, as the Chinese player won the top prize of $1.7m and the WSOP Circuit ring, as the overnight leader won $1,313,415 as runner-up.

WSOP Online Super Circuit GGMillion$ High Roller – March 31st, 2026

A stunning showing from the short-stacked Chinese player ‘littlepapi’ saw him victorious as he claimed the massive $1,702,088 top prize, and Daniel Negreanu was full of praise for the winner. He was in eighth place on the betting odds and available at 16.74 before the match in the GGPoker client.

“Shcherbakov really went for it the whole way but I really think littlepapi’s [win] was well deserved.” The seven-time bracelet winner said. “They had some really epic hands. Sometimes you make the jack-high call and you look like the hero. Other times you make the king-high call and that’s all she wrote.”

After a dramatic playout of the final table, here’s how all the finishers lined up in this week’s epic WSOP Super Circuit final table.

Place	Player	Country	Prize
1st	‘littlepapi’	China	$1,702,088
2nd	Kirill Shcherbakov	Russia	$1,313,415
3rd	Matheus Machado	Brazil	$1,013,788
4th	Checo Pacheco	Mexico	$782,745
5th	‘kikilala88’	Malaysia	$604,586
6th	Rayan ‘Beriuzy’ Chamas	Lebanon	$467,206
7th	Joao Vieira	Portugal	$361,271
8th	Joshua McCully	Australia	$279,586
9th	Daniel Petersen	Denmark	$216,596

Did the Chip Leader Blow it?

The victory for ‘littlepapi’ was well deserved, but did Kirill Shcherbakov simply get involved in too many battles? It’s hard to say. He did lose some chip-chasing eliminations when it might have been prudent to sit back, while the Chinese player won several all-ins, scuppering the chances of other players and building momentum towards the final showdown. 

That meant that despite Matheus Machado’s bust-out, which gave Shcherbakov’s stack a much-needed boost, he was unable to overtake the chip leader going into heads-up. An ill-timed bluff with four-high saw him drop to a big underdog, and that knock-on effect of holding little equity meant he was always a big second-favorite when hands like the final one played out.
