The three-day PGT Super High Roller Bowl – Mixed Games tournament was a joy to watch and was won by none other than Yuri Dzivielevski. Dzivielevski, who was the chip leader every day, won the $1.3 million top prize after one of the most dominant stretches in mixed games history.
The $1.3 million also represents the second-largest prize of the Brazilian’s career, narrowly lower than his $1,409,000 score for his third-place finish in the $150,000 Triton 8-Max at WSOP Paradise in December.
A week of dominance
Yuri Dzivielevski won the PGT Mixed Games Player of the Series after finishing with a win and two second-place finishes in the three most expensive events of the series, leading directly into his Super High Roller Bowl victory.
All in all, Dzivielevski won $2,045,350 in less than a week at the PokerGO Studio, further cementing his legacy as one of the greatest mixed games players of all-time. The five-time bracelet winner extends his career live tournament earnings to $11.7 million, second-most all time behind João Simao.

2026 Super High Roller Bowl – Mixed Games action
The 38-entry field made this the $100,000 tournament the biggest mixed games tournament in history, beating the 2025 field by nine.
Seven players made the money and bagged up for Day 3, guaranteeing themselves at least a $155,000 cash. Dzivielevski edged Benny Glaser for the final table chip lead, and both players would improve on their SHRB Mixed Games finishes from a year ago.
The 2025 champion and PGT Championship winner Chad Eveslage was also among the final seven contenders, along with Nick Schulman, Jared Bleznick, Robert Wells, and Tobias Leknes.
Unfortunately, Schulman, who was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame last year, would bleed from the start. He would brick on a three-way nut low draw in PLO8 and found himself with just 30,000 chips. However, it wasn’t all bad news for Schulman.
Schulman and Bleznick were ripping basketball cards at the table and pulled a Cooper Flagg gold rookie autograph, worth five figures. Schulman would be forced all in a couple hands later and couldn’t beat Dzivielevski’s quads or Glaser’s second-nut low and was eliminated in seventh for $155,000.
Although “The Blez” was in third place at the time, he would crash and burn to finish in sixth. After being dealt kings in Stud, Dzivielevski got max value with aces to cut Bleznick’s stack in half. Though Bleznick would run terribly in Limit Hold’em and found a spin from 75,000 to over a million, he found his death in Stud8.
It would take another hour for Tobias Leknes to depart in fifth place for $415,000, while Robert Wells was eliminated in fourth in baffling circumstances.
Dzivielevski had a massive chip lead, 6.1 million, while Wells found himself in second place (2 million), while Eveslage (1.875 million) and Glaser (1.375 million) watched on. In no-limit 2-7 single draw, Dzivielevski opened Q5432 from the button for 200,00,0 and Wells jammed T8762 from the small blind. Dzivielevski snap-called. Wells stood pat while Dzivielevski, of course, drew one. The Brazilian called for a seven but found a nine, and the Welsh mixed-games pro was disappointingly eliminated for $415,000, by far his biggest career cash.
Suddenly, the only three players who found back-to-back cashes in this very event found themselves three-handed and playing for a whole lot of money. However, Glaser and Eveslage were far behind and were virtually playing for second place.
Three-way play would last less than 25 minutes. Glaser would chip down pretty quickly as Dzivielevski ran over the table. While Glaser would double with A3o against Dzivielevski’s 98o in Limit Hold’em, his A6o couldn’t beat Dzivielevski’s T5s a few hands later, with Dzivielevski rivering the straight.
In heads-up play, Dzivielevski made a three-card four in Badugi and took a 10.5-to-1 chip lead over Eveslage. The very next hand, Eveslage was dealt a two-card three against Dzivielevski’s three-card five. Dzivielevski made an ace badugi next draw while Eveslage made a three-card jack. Eveslage couldn’t improve, and the Brazilian earned the second seven-figure prize of his career.
