$150 Satellite Final Table Is Live — the Cheapest Path to a Landmark Seat

Eight players remain in the $150 NLH Turbo Mega Satellite at the Horseshoe, and the chip leader — Joseph Galope, with 21,000 chips — has never appeared in a recorded WSOP cash.

That's the story of Event #380 right now. The cheapest buy-in of the entire 2026 WSOP summer series is down to its final table, and the guy sitting on top has no bracelets, no rings, and no lifetime earnings on file.

Who Else Is at the Table

The field is a mix of unknowns and one name worth flagging: Ryan Awwad, a two-time WSOP Circuit ring winner with $477,601 in lifetime earnings and 24 career final tables. Awwad busted before the final eight but his presence in a $150 satellite tells you something about how seriously grinders are treating the Landmark seat path this summer.

Also in the mix before the final table: Carlos Enriquez ($26,644 in career earnings), Michael Delaney from Ireland ($2,162), and Michelle Baldie from Great Britain — none of whom are still alive but all of whom fired $150 at a shot most pros wouldn't bother with.

Why You Should Be Watching

A $150 turbo satellite is pure chaos compressed into a few hours. Stacks are shallow, decisions are binary, and every all-in feels like a coin flip with a Landmark seat on the other side.

Galope's 21,000-chip stack is the only one the data has surfaced at this final table. That lead could evaporate in a single hand at turbo speed. This won't last long — tune in before it's over.
