To further entice these bedrock poker fans, PokerNews has stumped up 40 tickets through a leaderboard promotion to our exclusive bracelet event, the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship.

Every week, the top ten players on the leaderboard earn one of these coveted tickets and with the first week already concluded, be sure to dive into the highlights from Week 1!

The PokerNews Deepstack Challenge (PNDC) has entered its fourth and final week, with the results from Week 3 leaderboard all in the books.

New Zealand poker player Charlie Hawes became the first non-American to win the weekly leaderboard, which sends the best ten players into the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship bracelet event.

Hawes followed in the footsteps of Raymond Chiu and Duy Ho, who topped the leaderboard in Week 1 and Week 2 and was the latest recipient of a PNDC trophy.

Poker superstar Olga Iermolcheva also found herself in the Daily Deepstack streets and dominated her respective field to walk away with a five-figure haul along with a PNDC winner's coin.

Wrap up your day with some thrilling poker action! The final Daily Deepstack of the day kicks off at 8 p.m. as a single-day showdown. With a $200 buy-in, you'll start with a 20,000 stack of chips.

For those who like to make a dramatic entrance, late registration is open until the start of Level 6 (approx 10:20 p.m.), and you can reenter as many times as you want until then. Each level lasts 20 minutes, with plenty of 15-minute breaks throughout the evening.

Blinds start at 100/100, and the big blind ante is in play right from the start. If this event runs long, the tournament director reserves the right to suspend play and resume the following day.
