Swede Wins First WSOP Bracelet in $5K PLO Championship
Max Stenberg defeats Michael Mizrachi on GGPoker in the 2026 WSOP Online series PLO event.
Sweden's Max Stenberg claimed his first World Series of Poker bracelet this week, defeating Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi heads-up in the $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship event of the 2026 WSOP Online series on GGPoker, according to Poker.org.
Why It Matters
Stenberg's victory adds a notable international result to GGPoker's 2026 WSOP Online slate, reinforcing the platform's position as the primary venue for high-stakes online bracelet events. Beating a player of Mizrachi's calibre — a multiple-bracelet winner with deep PLO credentials — lends the result extra weight for tournament observers. For recreational players, this outcome is a reminder that online bracelet fields carry genuine variance and real risk; entry fees at this level start at $5,000. Separately, Aleksandr Kropotov of Russia took down the Mystery Millions event, demonstrating the geographic breadth of the 2026 series' winner pool.
Context
The WSOP Online series runs annually on GGPoker, offering official gold bracelets across a schedule of no-limit, mixed-game, and Omaha formats. As of September 2026, the series continues to attract high-volume grinders and recreational players alike, with buy-ins ranging from low three figures to five-figure high-roller events. PLO championships at the $5K level consistently draw strong fields due to the format's action-heavy structure.
What's Next
Additional bracelet events remain on the 2026 WSOP Online schedule; players can track remaining tournaments and results directly via GGPoker's lobby and the full coverage at Poker.org. Final series standings and total prize pool figures will be confirmed once the schedule concludes.
