PS Open Namur 2026: Tsvetanov Dominates the Super High Roller

After a record-breaking 2025, where organizers saw 1,572 entries in the Main Event and a total prizepool of nearly 1.5 million euros, the ambitions for 2026 are even higher. The goal is to attract more players, offer larger guarantees, and create an event that surpasses all previous editions in the history of this Namur festival.

The schedule is packed with prestigious events that appeal to a wide range of players:

• PokerStars Open Cup (May 27 – 31): The opening tournament with a 400€ buy-in, won by Frenchman Guillaume Marchand after a 3-way deal, earning him 35,000€.

• Main Event (May 30 – June 7): The main attraction with a 1,100€ buy-in and a massive 1,000,000€ guarantee.

• High Roller events: For more demanding players, the schedule includes the 3,300€ Super High Roller and 2,200€ High Roller (June 5 – 6).

• Mystery Bounty (June 6 – 7): A popular format with an 800€ buy-in that will close the festival.

The First Highlight Ends with Tsvetanov's Victory

One of the early highlights of the festival was the prestigious 3,300€ No-Limit Hold'em Super High Roller, which attracted an elite field of 69 entries. The total prizepool rose to 201,894€, with the top 9 players making it into the money.

The winner was Bulgarian player Martin Tsvetanov, who defeated Kalidou Sow in heads-up play to secure the top prize of 60,000€. This marks another significant achievement for Tsvetanov, following his victory in the Main Event at Eureka Prague 2024.

For Slovak fans, the most watched player was Michal Havavka. He delivered an outstanding performance, battling through strong international competition to finish in 4th place, taking home a prize of 21,400€ from Namur, Belgium.
