Aleksandr Kropotov won the $250 Mystery Millions for $631,459, a WSOP bracelet and a $30,000 Super Pass. The $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship reached seven players, led by Sweden’s Max Stenberg with 3,904,243 chips at the final table on September 9.

Aleksandr Kropotov, who appears under that name in the GGPoker lobby while playing as “sasha1317!”, has become the latest World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner after dominating the final table of the $250 Mystery Millions.

Kropotov eliminated all but one of his final-table opponents on his way to a $631,459 payday. Along with the cash prize and WSOP bracelet, the Russian player also secured a $30,000 Super Pass to the Super Main Event at the 2026 WSOP Paradise festival.

Kropotov Takes Down 47,798-Entry Mystery Millions

The $250 Mystery Millions built a 47,798-strong field after dozens of Day 1 flights, creating a $10,993,540 prize pool.

The tournament's $1 million jackpot bounty had already been awarded to “DrAvacado” on Day 2. Of the 4,083 players who returned for Day 2, only nine ultimately reached the final table.

Kropotov continued his run through the final nine, accounting for seven eliminations at the final table. The tournament reached heads-up play after Oliver Bosch was eliminated in third place for $363,048. Kropotov then faced Canada's Jessica Moors for the title.

Moors finished as the runner-up, earning $480,160. Kropotov secured his seventh final-table elimination by defeating Moors, completing his run to the title and collecting $631,459.

Kropotov's victory also comes with a place in the $50 million guaranteed WSOP Paradise Super Main

Event through a $30,000 Super Pass provided by GGPoker.

GGPoker is awarding a $30,000 Super Pass to the champion of each of the 33 bracelet events that make up the 2026 WSOP Online.

Kropotov therefore adds the Super Pass to his Mystery Millions victory, giving him a route into the Super Main Event at the 2026 WSOP Paradise festival.
