Day 7 of GOP Taipei 2026 delivered one of the festival’s defining moments so far as the Titan Stack High Roller crowned its champion, while the Main Event Flight D continued to swell under the deepest structure of the series. With side events firing throughout the day, trophies continued to change hands across multiple formats at CTP Asia Poker Arena .

Andrew Han Wins Titan Stack High Roller

The headline result belonged to Andrew Han , who emerged victorious in the Titan Stack High Roller after navigating a 25-entry field to claim the Rose Gauntlet and TWD 1,123,200 top prize. Han defeated Seung Hyuk Jung heads up, closing out a back-and-forth battle that saw momentum swing several times before a flush-over-flush cooler flipped the script in Han’s favor.

Jung briefly clawed back into contention, but the match ended when his ace-nine ran into Han’s pocket queens. Behind them, Gi Boum Kim finished third after starting the final day as chip leader, while Rudy Edenata and Elmer Kalaquian completed the payout positions. The win marked Han’s first major title of the series and added another Gauntlet winner to the GOP Taipei roll of honor.

Main Event Flight D Continues With Deep Cronus Structure

As the High Roller played down to a champion, Main Event Flight D pressed on using the longest Cronus Structure of the festival, featuring extended four-hour blind levels early in the day. A total of 146 entries were recorded across eight hours of registration, with 81 players surviving to bag chips.

Leading the field at the close of play was Kiyoung Kim, who finished with 581,500, narrowly ahead of Huan Yu Chen and Ho Yi Chang. Several familiar names also featured near the top of the counts, including Billy Jazha Alfonso, Shun Hei Lee, and Heng Zhe Hu, as stacks remained relatively shallow compared to earlier flights due to the extended level lengths.

Registration for Flight D remains open but will close at the start of Level 3 on Thursday, January 15, with late entrants beginning with a 120,000 starting stack.

Side Events Continue to Produce Winners

Side-event action remained constant throughout Day 7, with several tournaments reaching their conclusions alongside the Main Event grind. Brent Mutter topped a 51-entry field to win Medusa’s Head Hunter, combining bounties and payouts for TWD 149,960 after navigating a deep and busy field.

Elsewhere on the schedule, Pi Ying Hsu claimed the Hyper Turbo, outlasting a large and fast-moving field to secure TWD 168,752. Additional Shield trophies were awarded across mixed-game and turbo formats as players continued to balance Main Event ambitions with opportunities elsewhere on the floor.

By the end of the day, the trophy count continued to rise as GOP Taipei 2026 moved deeper into its second week.

What’s Coming on January 15

Attention now turns to Thursday, January 15, which brings another pivotal day to the schedule. Main Event Flight D – Day 2 resumes at 12:30 PM with registration closing at the start of play, while Flight E offers the final standard chance to enter the Main Event later in the evening.

The day also features a Single Day High Roller at 1:00 PM, the Titan Stack Turbo, another Aphrodite’s Event, and a full slate of late-night turbo and mixed-game options, including the Hyper Turbo High Roller to close the schedule.
