With his elimination of Marko Cosic, Spain’s Alejandro Asenjo is now crowned the winner of the 2026 Battle of Malta (Summer Edition) €600 Main Event. For his astonishing feature, he takes home €94,520, the coveted trophy, and, most importantly, the prestigious title. He’s forever etched his name into eternal poker history, and his success on the paradise island will never be forgotten.

Asenjo started the day as fourth in the chip counts. The tournament throughout, he displayed great skills of both patience and aggression, which were two crucial moments on his way to the title. Sure, with four players left, the contestants may have diverted somewhat from the ABC’s, but nevertheless, Asenjo most certainly deserves the title and the trophy.

With that, fellow poker enthusiasts, the 2026 Battle of Malta live coverage comes to an end. I, Christoffer Karlén, would like to extend my gratitude to:

• The Battle of Malta organisation for once again having me. It’s an amazing event, and the hospitality is flawless.
• My dear colleagues, especially fellow live reporter Richard Hayes and photographer Igor Bezborodov, the two I’ve been working the closest two during the week.
• All the dealers and other staff; without your sublime work, the event would cease to exist.
• All the players, for letting their love of the game shine through during the entire eight days.

While the live coverage is officially done and dusted, stay tuned for a longer recap of today’s action. In the meantime, please enjoy the final table results below.
