Day 17 of WPT Cambodia 2026 at NagaWorld saw a massive shift in momentum as the flagship WPT Cambodia Championship whittled its massive field down to the final 54 players. While international stars dominated the leaderboards in the Main Tour, regional specialists secured trophies in the side event action.
