Lucas Jumalon, a 22-year-old from Spokane, won the 2026 World Series of Poker Main Event on Wednesday night in Las Vegas, beating Finland’s Lauri Saaskilahti heads-up for the $10 million first prize and the championship bracelet. He now makes history as the first Washington player to win the event and the second-youngest champion behind Joe Cada, who took it at 21 in 2009.
The field of 9,208 entries was the fourth largest in the event’s history. Jumalon finished Day 1b with 7,400 chips, rebuilt, and held the chip lead on every hand of the final table. The heads-up match lasted 17 hands.
