Two Tables Left in the $2,200 Mega Sat — and Timothy Miles Is Lurking

It's past midnight at the Horseshoe and two players with WSOPC hardware are grinding the final 16 of the $2,200 Landmark Mega Satellite — chasing a seat worth more than any ring.

The field started at 27 tracked players and has been carved to two tables. Chip counts aren't public, but the names still alive tell the story.

Timothy Miles has $3.07M in lifetime earnings, two WSOPC rings, and 25 career final tables — and right now he's sweating a satellite.

Who's Still In

Timothy Miles is the biggest résumé at the table and it's not close. Two Circuit rings, 25 final tables, $3.07M in career cashes. The man doesn't need a satellite — except when the seat on the other side is a Landmark entry.

Anselmo Villarreal holds one WSOPC ring, $294K in lifetime earnings, and five final tables. He's the only other player left with any hardware.

Beyond those two, the remaining field has grinders with real track records. James Jewell carries $417K in lifetime earnings across six final tables. John McDonald has $398K and 10 career final tables. Kaiwen Wei sits on $342K with three finals. Germany's Paul Esau ($154K, one final table) and China's Zhang Yang ($133K) round out the notables.

Denmark's Sebastian Mortensen ($13K lifetime) and Joseph Chaplin (no recorded earnings) are the deep underdogs still standing.

Why This Matters at 1 AM

This is the highest buy-in satellite running at the 2026 WSOP right now, and it's down to two tables with no break in sight. Sixteen players. However many seats are up top, every bust from here reshuffles the math for everyone left.

Miles is the player to watch. At $3.07M lifetime, he's earned nearly ten times what some of his opponents have — combined. But satellites don't care about your Hendon page.

The stream is live now from the Horseshoe. No confirmed end time — this one plays down until the seats are locked.
