The second day of the Battle of Malta 2026 Summer Edition at Casino Malta was even more thrilling than the first, as mystery bounty fever gripped the Eden Arena when 170 players returned for Day 2 of the €300 Siege of Malta Mystery Bounty.

After a five-way deal, Wesley Haynes of the United Kingdom took the title and €21,020, inclusive of bounties. However it was Poland’s Dominik Cybulski who took the lion’s share of the huge €276,416 prize pool, after he pulled the top €20,000 bounty, taking his total winning’s to €38,300.

Two further flights of the Main Event were also concluded, with Florence Mazet and Dimitrios Asgoudakis topping the Day 1c and Day 1d standings respectively, while there were side-event wins for Wiktor Weiner, Frederik Genzel, and Andrew Fleming.

Another jam-packed schedule awaits on Day 3, with full details below, with the Ladies and HORSE side-events taking center stage.

Wesley Haynes Wins €300 Siege of Malta Mystery Bounty (€21,020 inclusive of bounties after deal)

A huge field of 1,131 entries were logged to create a €276,416 prize pool, smashing the €100,000 guarantee, and 170 players returned for the finale, with Frenchman Benjamin Fougerouze in the lead.

The knockouts came at a rapid pace, and Dominik Bencan snaffled a €10,000 bounty early.

Fougerouze would be first to fall at the final table, at which point Cybulski pulled the biggest bounty.

After the eliminations of Adam Lawniczak, Alberto Galluzzo and Simone Spina, the five remaining players agreed to a deal. They played on for a portion of the prize pool and the trophy, and Haynes came out on top.
