Michael Addamo Makes a Triumphant Comeback, Secures Ninth GGMillion$ Title

Article cover

Michael Addamo took a break from poker, and even though he stayed out of the limelight for the past two years, he's made a dreamlike comeback. In the latest edition of the renowned $10K High Roller, with a total of 216 entries, it was Addamo who unquestionably took control of the tournament.

Addamo entered the final table with the sixth-largest stack, facing a significant gap to chipleader Pedro Neves from Portugal. What followed was a pure Addamo spectacle. The Australian phenomenon showcased uncompromising aggression, personally knocking out 7 of his 8 opponents at the final table!

It's no surprise that he entered the heads-up against Neves with a commanding 7:1 lead. The heads-up lasted only six hands. In the final hand, Addamo went all-in with 8 c 7 c, and Neves called with A s Q h. The board 2 h K c 3 h J h 8 d gave Addamo an eight on the river, sealing the tournament's fate.

This marks Addamo's ninth GGMillion$ title in his career. In the historical standings, he's breathing down the necks of Samuel Vousden with 10 titles and within reach of record-holder Artur Martirosian, who has 13 titles to his name.

If you'd like to witness Addamo's incredible run firsthand, the complete livestream of the final table is available. Poker commentator and GGPoker ambassador Jeff Gross, along with the fresh 22-year-old WSOP 2026 Main Event world champion Lucas Jumalon, will guide you through:
