7/29 $165 Monster Stack Rush Tournament Winner!

High-speed tournament poker was on full display at Rivers Casino Schenectady during the 2026 $165 Monster Stack Rush on July 29. A formidable field of 63 contenders took their seats, all competing with deep 100,000 starting stacks against a relentless 10-minute clock. The unique format challenged players to strike the perfect balance between aggressive stack management and sharp tactical timing.

Riding the momentum all the way to the top, David P (Middle) put on a masterclass to conquer the field and secure 1st place along with $2,699.00 in prize money! David navigated the volatile late-stage dynamic with poise, continually putting pressure on opponents when it mattered most. Shoutout to David on a brilliant run and an impressive win at Rivers!

Hats off to Aaron and John for showing, once again, that they're formidable opponents at the final table, as seen flanking our fearless winner.

And As Always Rivers, Good Luck!
