What's Coming Up on Tuesday at Wynn Summer Classic

Wynn Summer Classic

The Wynn Summer Classic rolled on Tuesday with another packed slate, headlined by a fresh $1,600 No-Limit Hold’em flight and a late-day opportunity for players still hunting a bag.

At 11 a.m., Day 1C of the $1,600 No-Limit Hold’em kicked off under the $2,000,000 guarantee, bringing in another wave of grinders looking to lock up a stack ahead of the money stages. With multiple starting flights running across the series, the field is steadily building toward what is shaping up to be one of the bigger mid-summer turnouts on the Strip.

Midday action shifted gears at 12 p.m. with the $1,100 TOE event drawing a more specialized crowd and a different rhythm at the tables. Smaller field, faster pace, and plenty of players looking to spin up a deep run before the evening schedule takes over.

The day isn’t done there either. At 6 p.m., Day 1D of the $1,600 No-Limit Hold’em offers one more chance for players to find a bag, with late entrants and fresh faces expected to push the numbers even higher as the series momentum builds.

The second pot-limit Omaha tournament on Sunday at the 2026 Wynn Summer Classic was an $1,100 buy-in Turbo.

There were 124 entrants in this $100,000 guaranteed tournament, 15 paid. Nobody had any chips when it ended except for Sean Rafael, the champion who took home $33,248 at Wynn Las Vegas.

Rafael wasn't the only big winner out of the $120,900 prize pool, however. The runner-up, Russell Brooks, made $21,061, and third-place finisher Daniel Pearlman collected $14,568 for his efforts.

Jonathan McCann Wins $1,100 NLH Turbo Event

The smaller, nimbler sister of the standard $200,000 guaranteed $1,100 No Limit Hold'em event at the Wynn Summer Classic, is the $100,000 guaranteed $1,100 No Limit Hold'em Turbo. Playing out in the evening, today's turbo event did not manage to get as many entrants as the non-turbo event. However, this did have the advantage of giving those who did enter a small overlay from the guarantee.

With the prize pool made up $100,000 by the Wynn, the 96 entrants set about eliminating each other.

When the final table arrived, with $29,670 up top for first place, all nine players were hopeful of taking the event down. But in the end, Jonathan McCann emerged victorious from the scrap, beating Henri Kasper heads-up.

The pair finished ahead of Yingzheng Shi ($12,950) in third.

Kasper won $18,500 for his second-place finish.
