Back On Top
Tuesday started slow with only 25 players seated at the start of the tournament but a steady stream of late registrations resulted in 77 total players firing 82 rebuy bullets. After the add-ons, we ended up with a prize pool of $3,680 set to be paid to our top 16 finishers.
We never got to hand for hand play as Colin Mor. (Syracuse, NY) just missed his twelfth Tuesday Night cash of the year with a bubble finish. A table was broken and two full tables continued play as players looked for a pay jump. Cal Mac. (Pleasantville, NY) was our first player to stop at the payout desk, collecting $75 for his 16th place finish. This marked Cal’s tenth Tuesday Night cash of 2026. Arnie Ben. (Brackney, PA) wasn’t far behind, posting a 15th place finish worth $75. This was Arnie’s fifth Tuesday Night cash of the year and his second in three weeks. Zawadi Yeb. (Johnson City, NY) ended her birthday celebration a little earlier than she had wanted but managed a 14th place finish that earned her $75. This was her third consecutive Tuesday Night cash and eighth of the year. Lucas Har. (Owego, NY) finished in 13th place, earning $75. This cash pulled Lucas into a tie for second place with twelve cashes on the year and helped him extend his lead as top Tuesday Night money earner in 2026.
Jimmy Far. (Binghamton, NY) posted his second consecutive cash at 607poker.com with a 12th place finish worth $95. Jimmy joined a four way tie for second with his twelfth Tuesday Night cash of the year. Jacob Stu. (Liverpool, NY) posted his second consecutive Tuesday Night cash picking up $95 for his 11th place finish. Matt Mai. (Endwell, NY) just missed a final table appearance with a 10th place finish that brought him $95. This was Matt’s fourth Tuesday Night cash of the year.
The final 9 players had a redraw for final table seating before resuming play. Jeremy Wri. (Deposit, NY) took the toughest beat of the night when his AA couldn’t hold up against KK when the board brought QJT9. Jeremy collected $115 for his 9th place finish, marking his second Tuesday Night cash of the year. Ben Wu (Binghamton, NY) logged his first Tuesday Night cash, exiting in 8th place and pocketing $135. Wayne Win. (Johnson City, NY) continued his recent hot streak with 7th place finish that earned him $155. This marks Wayne’s third Tuesday Night cash of 2026.
Sue Tut. (Waymart, PA) made an impressive debut at 607poker.com, finishing in 6th place and picking up $175. Sue is now one for one in cashing on Tuesday Night tournaments so let’s see how long she can keep this streak going! Final table regular Jeff Smi. (Marathon, NY) continued his September run good with a 5th place finish worth $220. This is Jeff’s fifth Tuesday Night cash of the year. Aaron Beh. (Binghamton, NY) survived a roller coaster of a final table, making it to 4th place and securing a $310 payday. This was Aaron’s third and best Tuesday Night finish of the year.
Rob Cli. (Conklin, NY) bobbed and weaved his way to a 3rd place finish that delivered him $440. This was Rob’s third Tuesday Night cash of the year (all in the last four weeks). Heads up play began with Luke Car. (Deposit, NY) facing an uphill challenge as the short stack against Mike Bri. (Ithaca, NY). Luke put up a good fight but couldn’t gain any traction, exiting in 2nd place. This was Luke’s first Tuesday Night cash of the year, earning him $640. This left Mike with all of the chips and his first outright victory at 607poker.com (one heads up chop). Mike picked up the guaranteed 1st place payout of $1,000 for his fourth and largest Tuesday Night cash of the year.
