Legend Lonis Wins First Summer Classic, Takes $25k 8-Max High Roller

2024 GPI Player of the YearJesse Lonis added another major honor to his name by taking down the first $25K 8-Max High Roller of the Wynn Summer Classic, following a heads-up deal with WSOP bracelet winner Alexandros Theologis.

Lonis defeated a 57-entry field to bank $410,242, conquering a final table stacked with some of the world’s elite high rollers.

Still riding high after a career-best score of $3.4 million at the Triton Montenegro Main Event just last month, Lonis continues to pile up results at a pace few can match.

The final table was loaded, with Alex Kulev, Samuel Laskowitz, and Andrew Lichtenberger all in the mix, alongside Clemen Deng, Aram Oganyan, and Ioannis Angelou Konstas. Combined, the eight finalists have racked up more than $70 million in live earnings.

With this win, Lonis extends his lead in the 2025 GPI Player of the Year race and moves one step closer to going back-to-back.
