Klemens Roiter Tops 2026 PokerStars Live League High Standings After EPT Barcelona

Klemens Roiter Takes Over High Leaderboard

Klemens Roiter entered EPT Barcelona in second place on the High leaderboard of the 2026 PokerStars Live League. He made the most of his time in Spain, winning both a €25,000 and a €10,000 event and finishing runner-up in another. These results vaulted him to the top of the High tier with 6,774.01 points, giving him a lead of more than 1,600 points over second-placed Enrico Camosci.

Camosci had a productive stop in Barcelona as well, cashing 128th in the EPT Main Event and finishing third in the €30,000 Super High Roller. That lifted him to 5,092.72 points and pushed former leader Juan Pardo down to third with 5,056.76 points. Pardo's most recent live tournament results before this article were at EPT Monte Carlo in May.

Aleksejs Ponakovs fell one place to fourth, while Kayhan Mokri broke into the top five with 4,495.70 points after recording three cashes at the festival, including a runner-up finish in the €100,000 Super High Roller.

Medium Tier Shake-Up

Movement in the Medium tier was equally significant. Andrew Hulme added 1,106 points during EPT Barcelona to hold first place at 3,896.24 points. However, Jason Wheeler closed to within 22.11 points of him after winning the PokerStars Open Main Event, a 4,333-entry field that paid him €731,000 (approximately $846,025).

Manuel Ferrari, who took down the EPT Barcelona Main Event for €1,002,488 (approximately $1,170,857), moved to third in the Medium standings with 3,612.07 points, pushing Conor O'Driscoll to fourth.

Low Tier Standings

In the Low tier, Danilo Donnini retained the lead with 1,705.71 points, ahead of Hulme at 1,532.41 and O'Driscoll at 1,442.23.

League Structure and Prizes

The PokerStars Live League distributes €157,500 in total LIVE credit across its three tiers: High, Medium, and Low. The High tier alone offers €50,000 to the champion, €25,000 to second, and €12,500 to third.

Beyond the cash credit, the top 30 players in each tier will qualify for a live freeroll carrying a €100,000 prize pool at the first EPT stop of 2027, giving the standings added weight as the season progresses.
