Download

Eight days after Day 1 events began, TonyTheToenailcollector has emerged as The One’s 2026 champion.

STEP 1

$250 Day 1

TonyTheToenailcollector entered satellites, but also fired eight buy-ins at Day 1 events. Their best stack of 76BB continued to Day 2.

STEP 2

$5M Day 2

Tony collected more chips and maintained a place near the top of the Day 2 pack. At the final table, he was very active, and unstoppable.

STEP 3

$1M Victory

A strong start and a stronger finish put Tony ahead of 18,729 players to win the largest tournament payout in CoinPoker history.

Every bet. Every tough call. Every instinct. It all led to the greatest victory in CoinPoker history.

Together, the seven players who reached the final table collected $2,400,000.

Their final ranks and hands are below.

The Stories

The winner takes the spotlight, but that doesn’t overshadow everything that happened along the way.

Here are some of The One’s stories, from satellite scores and big bubble moments to brutal coolers.

Final Two

The Last Moment

TonyTheToenailcollector vs zoru99. Both have pairs.

The chips are all-in preflop, and the One’s winner hits a set.

Had zoru99’s pocket nines held, stacks would have been almost even, and we could have had a different champion.

Eight Left

Final Bubble

StartedFromTheBottom and raketenbauer were both down to their last chips.

One of them was below 1BB. Not much to maneuver with.

With no way to hold on anymore, StartedFromTheBottom was all-in, and the eventual winner hit trips.

Ambassadors

The Pros of Day 2

Plenty of CoinPoker ambassadors got to Day 2, but this was a tough event.

Papo MC, Patrick Leonard, Lecomsi, Beriuzy, YohViral, and BluffaloSam are just a few that went for the win. RobinPoker went the farthest, busting in 135th place.

A New Level

Senior Steps Up

SeniorTalez came 5th for $160,000. Surely a seasoned MTT veteran, right?

Before The One, SeniorTalez had never reached a final table, only cashed in four tournaments, and never won more than $125. The definition of leveling up.

ITM for Less

Sats Won $1M+

A fifth of Day 2 players reached the event through satellites, including Bufunfa in 3rd place ($325,000) and raketenbauer in 6th ($112,500).

In total, these players won over $1,000,000 from the tournament.

Final Table

Full Dominance

TonyTheToenailcollector was chipleader for all 170 final table hands.

zoru99 came close to matching his stack in the last hand with nines, but Tony’s lower pocket sevens locked up the win instead.

Two for Tony

Multi-Tasking

While TonyTheToenailcollector was playing for a million dollars in The One, he was also heads-up in the $109 CoinMasters DOGE.

He finished second there for $19,024, but probably wasn’t disappointed.

Running It Up

$1 to $19,250

Skipping the direct buy-ins, Tiniesta1994 joined a $1 direct satellite.

They won entry, and finished 15th, running it up into a 19,250x return. Before playing in The One, Tiniesta1994’s top tournament score was $763.

2 Years Later

Plus $325,000

After two years on CoinPoker, and $9,402 earned, Bufunfa’s graph has spiked.

Finishing third in The One brought Bufunfa $325,000, a prize over 117 times bigger than their previous record tournament score of $2,760.

Series Regs Return

Medal Winners

TonyTheToenailcollector, raketenbauer, zoru99, and billy1913 all hold GOPC Medals.

Each of them has wins from the $88M series, except for billy1913, who holds a Silver Medal. Tony scored over $100,000 from his Medals.

Next Year
