CSOPⅢ Chaoshan Poker Series Concludes Successfully! Wang Haohui Wins Main Event Championship, CSOP IV to Begin in September

The 2026 CSOPⅢ Chaoshan Poker Series has officially entered its final chapter.

At 12:00 noon on July 8th, the main event final table kicked off on time. After seven days of competition and four rounds of elimination, the final nine players who fought their way through numerous participants took to the final stage under the spotlight to compete for the highest honor of this year's CSOP main event.

With the final hand settled, the player from Hong Kong...Wang HaohuiHe successfully reached the top, lifted the CSOPⅢ main event championship trophy, and officially wrote his name into the CSOP champion roster.

Wang Haohui crowned main tournament champion

From Day 1 to Day 4, the competition in the main event was constantly shrinking in each round.

Once the final table was reached, the atmosphere became extremely tense. Every bet, every all-in, and every river card captivated the emotions of the audience.

In the end, Wang Haohui withstood the pressure and made a final sprint at the final table to win the main event championship.

As he raised the trophy high with both hands, the entire arena erupted in applause and cheers. This moment belonged to the sole victor after seven days of fierce competition.

On the eve of the final, he chose to "empty himself".

In a post-match interview, Wang Haohui talked about his preparations for the night before the final.

He admitted that he fought his way to the final table, and by the end, his body and mind were stretched to the limit.

Unlike many players, he did not continue studying the game records on the eve of the final, nor did he consult with friends about tactics. Instead, he chose to temporarily "disconnect" from the game.

He stayed alone in his room, dimmed the lights, and quietly watched a World Cup match.

This composure to empty himself under pressure is perhaps the key reason why he remained clear-headed during the final battle.

Sometimes, the best preparation is not to keep adding information, but to truly calm yourself down.
