Diego "Ushuaia1" Zeiter

GGPoker's Super MILLION$ tournament always creates some colossal prizes, but this week's edition is something else. The 28th episode of Season 2 acts as the Main Event for the Super MILLION$ Week, which has resulted in a top prize weighing in at an impressive $1,242,190.

The tournament has a $5 million guarantee on its prize pool, but 815 entries mean that prize pool contained $8,150,000. Dozens of superstars netted between $22,709 and $110,377 on Day 2, but the biggest prizes are reserved for the star-studded final table, which shuffles up and deals at 6:00 p.m. GMT on February 1.

Watch This Star-Studded Final Table Unfold

Who will win this week's Super MILLION$? Watch the final table action here!

Diego "Ushuaia1" Zeiter is the man who finds himself in the envious position of chip leader when the final table action gets underway. Zeiter is guaranteed to bow his previous best GGPoker score out of the water because even if the unthinkable happens and he crashes out in ninth, he will walk away with $155,723. However, sitting down with 17,266,441 chips (86.3 big blinds)) means he will, no doubt, fancy his chances of taking home the enormous $1,242,190 top prize.

Marius Gierse is one of the eight finalists tasked with stopping Zeiter in his tracks; he returns with 15,828,957 chips or 79.1 big blinds. Gierse is a regular in the Super MILLION$ and has won more than $2.25 million from these high stakes events. An outright victory still eludes Gierse, although he has two runner-up finishes. What better time to get the proverbial monkey of his back than by helping himself to the monumental top prize offered tonight.

Third place at the restart belongs to Daniel "Vanessa23" Montagnolli, who is playing in his first ever Super MILLION$ tournament! Montagnolli almost won an online WSOP title but fell in fourth-place in the WSOP #71: BIG 50. That result banked him $81,713 and he is now guaranteed almost double that prize. Montagnolli is one of three players who sit down with an eight-figure stack, namely 11,558,046 chips or 57.8 big blinds.

Audrius "Audrii" Stakelis is another player who does not usually frequent the Super MILLION$ tournaments, but you would never know judging by his 8,656,994 chips (43.3 big blinds). This is only the second time we have seen Stakelis' name in the Super MILLION$ chip counts, which means this is also his first cash and maiden final table. Will it also be his first victory? Stakelis is positioned in the middle of the pack so has every chance of coming away with the title.

Hong Kong's "TonyLin008" returns to the action in fifth-place courtesy of their 7,948,862 chips (39.7 big blinds). TonyLin008 will fancy their chances of causing an upset when play resumes because, with all due respect, they are a relatively unknown quantity. The player has a shade under $400,000 in GGPoker winnings, the bulk of which stems from winning a WSOP Circuit ring in a $1,050 GGMasters HR tournament, which netted them $197,745.

Ole Schemion
Ole Schemion

Down in sixth-place, albeit with 6,866,980 chips (34.3 big blinds), is where you find former Super MILLION$ champion Ole Schemion. His victory came back in October 2020 so you could say Schemion is overdue another win. Schemion finished eighth the last time he navigated his way to a Super MILLION$ final table, he will be hoping to go far deeper this time around.

Mikita Badziakouski finished fourth the last time the Super MILLION$ crowned a champion, a result that came with $205,795. Badziakouski sits down at this gargantuan Super MILLION$ final table in seventh-place with 5,148,457 chips (25.7 big blinds), so has plenty of work ahead of him if he is to come out on top here. The former partypoker pro is a fearless player so expect him to bust out early or climb towards the chip counts' summit when the cards are back in the air.

One of the shorter stacks, much to the delight of the other finalists, is Wiktor Malinowski. The Macau-based high stakes cash game specialist won this tournament in May 2021. That victory came with $394,852, finishing fifth or better tonight beats that score. Malinowski, like Badziakouski, reached the previous Super MILLION$ final table. He finished seventh as Isaac Haxton marched onto victory. He returns to the fray with 4,948,909 chips or 24.7 big blinds.

India's Neel "Neel" Joshi is the player bringing up the rear this week with a 3,276,357 stack, the equivalent of 16.4 big blinds. Joshi has one previous in-the-money finish in this tournament. It came in August 2021 when he finished sixth for $105,482. Joshi is already guaranteed to smash that prize out of the park.
