Thirty-seven entries at $1,050, a $40,000 prize pool and $13,680 to the winner: OMGTHATEDGE’s win in Event #33, the Super High Roller, was the largest first prize in the first 33 events of 888poker’s XL Autumn Series 2026, bar one. The exception was the $109 Mystery Opening Event, where mikeyW94 beat 871 entries for $12,376 from a $100,000 pool; the Super High Roller’s winner collected $1,304 more from a field a twenty-third of the size.
PokerNews printed the full table of events #01 to #33 on September 28, a day before the series closed with the $250 Mystery Main Event ($300,000 guaranteed) and the $25 Mystery Mini Main ($50,000 guaranteed). The two Main Event results were not in the source and are not on the ledger.
The high rollers
Four events carried the label. Event #08, the $525 High Roller, drew 60 entries for a $30,000 pool and paid $8,985 to MasterBak3r. Event #13, the $320 Super KO High Roller, drew 48 for $14,400 and paid $2,889 to KITCHEN_TE9, who then won Event #19, the $320 DeepStack High Roller, from 51 entries for $3,415. And Event #33, the Super High Roller, paid OMGTHATEDGE the $13,680.
These are the figures behind the desk’s rule that a “High Roller” label means nothing until the buy-in is read beside it. On 888poker the label starts at $320; on GGPoker the weekly high roller is $10,000. The ledger shows the price next to every event name for that reason.
The shape of the series
Most of the 33 events were Mystery Bounty formats at $5.50 to $109, with fields from 96 to 1,066 entries and first prizes from $363 (MonkeyGamble, the $8.80 Super KO, 434 entries) to $5,579 (Paulada85, the $55 Mystery Bounty with a $25,000 pool, 489 entries). comon99 won twice, Events #05 and #26, both $8.80 Mystery Bounties. The largest single pool before the Main Events was the $100,000 Mystery Opening Event.
The whole table, event number, name, entrants, prize pool, champion and prize, is on the series page as published, 33 rows. No real names or countries were given for any winner; the record carries screen names only.
The Main Events at the time of writing
PokerNews reported 1,072 buy-ins to the $250 Mystery Main Event with 129 players through to Day 2, and 1,716 to the Mystery Mini Main with 204 advancing, before the finals on September 29. Both Day 2s were scheduled for Monday, September 28, alongside Events #34 and #35; the closing day carried the $320 Closing Big Shot High Roller, two closing Mystery Bounties and the $109 Closing Big Shot.
The series page states what the source did and did not include. When a payout table for the Mystery Main Event is published, the record will be added with its source, and the series totals, which 888poker has not released in the material on file, with it.
