Everyone’s favorite celebrity chess event is back! Get ready for the most nonsensical chess ever witnessed by humankind, as PogChamps 6 7 takes place on April 10. Eight of the world’s biggest creators will bring the full force of their three-digit Elos to fight for a piece of the $100,000 prize fund.
PogChamps 6 7 features a new format and a one-day playing schedule that fits perfectly with the FIDE Candidates Tournament’s rest day. Eight star creators will play in a group stage featuring a double round-robin. The stakes are higher than ever—for the first time in Pog history, there will be no Consolation Bracket. The top players from the group stage will then play in a single-elimination knockout, from where only one contestant can emerge as the new PogChampion.
Along with the new format, fans can expect to see a lineup of some of the world’s biggest creators stepping into the Pog arena for the first time. Among them is one of the biggest names in live streaming and the 2025 Esports Content Creator of the Year, Jynxzi. Backed by a massive army of followers and the wisdom from his coach, IM Levy Rozman, can Jynxzi make it all the way to the end?
