WSOP Main Event Down to 100 on Day 6
Jason Kornegay leads the remaining field at the Horseshoe as the $10,000 championship enters its final stretch.

The 2026 WSOP Main Event crossed below 100 players on Day 6, with Jason Kornegay sitting atop the chip counts at 6.84 million.
Kornegay, representing Jamaica, leads a field that includes four-time bracelet winner Loren Klein (4.85M), one-time bracelet winner Todd Brunson (5.24M), and the United Kingdom's Patrick Leonard (3.80M). Brunson, who has $2.87M in lifetime tournament earnings across 19 career final tables, is making one of the deepest Main Event runs of his career. Klein brings $2.85M in lifetime earnings and 11 final tables to the remaining field.
Leonard, still chasing his first WSOP bracelet despite $2.04M in career earnings and nine final tables, is among the shortest of the named stacks but well within striking distance. Zhao Liu rounds out the reported leaders at 4.10M.
The Numbers
The field milestone was recorded at approximately 2:05 a.m. PT on July 12 at the Horseshoe in Las Vegas. Play is expected to resume for Day 7 with the remaining players guaranteed a significant pay jump as the final table approaches.
Klein's four bracelets make him the most decorated player among the confirmed top stacks. Brunson's 19 lifetime final tables are the most of anyone on the leaderboard.
