The $500 Colossus — the cheapest bracelet event on the 2026 WSOP schedule — is nine-handed, and the chip leader is Justin Smith, a player whose entire recorded tournament career amounts to $5,542.

Smith, from the United States, bagged 107 million chips heading into the final table at the Horseshoe/Paris complex in Las Vegas. He holds zero bracelets, zero Circuit rings, and no prior WSOP final-table appearances on record.

Close behind him is Karabet Keshishyan at 101.5 million. Keshishyan has no recorded lifetime tournament earnings on file — another ghost in the database now sitting on a mountain of chips.

Jose Orozcogomez of Mexico rounds out the top three stacks with 65.5 million. Unlike the two players above him, Orozcogomez has a modest tournament track record: $150,716 in lifetime cashes and one prior final table.

Two players busted on the final-table bubble. Justin Datloff, a WSOP Circuit ring winner with $192,786 in career earnings, finished 11th. Michael Chesney, whose lifetime earnings totaled just $811, went out in 10th.

First-place prize money and the remaining final-table payouts have not yet been published by WSOP. The final table resumes at the Horseshoe.
