2026 DSPS in Review

Shaun Davis, 2026 Deep Stack Poker Series Main Event Champion

The Deep Stack Poker Series is always a fun two-week run of tournaments leading up to and through the Memorial Day weekend each year.  The 2026 schedule had ten trophy events over 14 days and $810,000 in guaranteed money.

Events: 10
Entries: 2,419
Guarantees: $810,000
Prize Pools: $1,034,171

The incredible turnout in the Poker Room had 2,419 entries and put more than $1,000,000 in the prize pools. Amazing turnout, and the Poker Room was hopping.

The top tournament was the $1,700 Deepest Stack, with 225 entries across three starting flights, and late registration available until Day 2. After an extra day of play, it took Shaun Davis only 35 minutes to finish off the three-handed final table and win the title outright for $79,520.

Other notable wins include Matt Bretzfield’s victory in the opening tournament, the $400 Quad Stack Slater Scoop. Allan Dungo won two tournaments, Tom Gottlieb won the $400 Deep Stack multi-flight tournament, and Michael Newman captured the $600 Deeper Stack title.

Congrats to all of our winners and thanks to everyone for coming out!

See you this summer for the 2026 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open from July 28 through August 11!
