One of the most anticipated events for high-stakes players at the BSOP Summer, the High Roller Championship, crowned Alisson Piekazewicz
Piekazewicz defeated Leo Rizzo
The player from Paraná had already shone in the 2025 edition and has now repeated an outstanding performance. After his triumph, he commented with a laugh about the perfect combination of competition and relaxation he finds at BSOP Summer:
“I want to come every year and I hope it stays this way. I come, I win money, and at the same time, I enjoy the pool and the beach.”
The Podium Of This Tremendous Tournament.
In the previous edition, Piekazewicz described the event as the best poker stop he had ever played. In 2026, his opinion has not changed:

“For me, it remains the best live poker stop in the world. And not just of the summer, but of the entire year. Not because of the tournament’s EV, but because of life’s EV: enjoying the place and not just staying to play.”
In addition to the trophy and the cash prize, Piekazewicz received an exclusive Card Protector, designed by jeweler Pedro Yossef. The champion confessed it was a pleasant surprise:
“I’ve never had a card protector and didn’t even know this tournament gave one away. I’m happy about it. I don’t usually think about these extra prizes, but when they arrive home, I love them.”
