WSOP Online Series 2022 – Week 2
Week two of the 3rd annual World Series of Poker Online (WSOP-O), hosted by GGPoker; the world’s most prestigious poker tournament at the world’s biggest poker room has been completed. Since we last reported on this event, 7 World Series of Poker bracelets have been awarded and two more events are well underway, one of which should be completed today and the other tomorrow.
Looking to the future, 5 World Series of Poker bracelet events are scheduled through next Sunday plus Day 1’s for the $20,000,000 Guaranteed WSOP Online Championship event #33 have already begun. The Guinness Record holding event will run the Final Day on Monday September 26th and with 7 more Day 1’s available to choose from, you have ample opportunity to join the excitement.
WSOP Bracelet Events
The $1,050 ($500+ $500 + $50) buy-in Event #4: Bounty Deepstack No-Limit Hold’em, which began Thursday August 18th, finished its day 2 at 02:26 UTC on August 20th. The 28.5 hour (including a break before the start of the final table) event had 986 players enter to vie for the championship bracelet. The event ended when ‘JESUSYAAZY’ knocked out ‘Wtfisthis’ to claim the final bounty for a total of $96,769.94 and the World Series of Poker online bracelet.
Event #5 of the WSOP Online poker tournament series was a $315 ($150 +$150 +$15) buy-in 6-handed Bounty No-Limit event. Starting of August 20th with the final table scheduled for August 21st, this event attracted 2,312 players, creating a prize pool of $693,600. When the event concluded, it was ‘Marklanders1’ beating ‘ZWC8794’ for the top spot, biggest bounty award, a total of $60,714.05 and the WSOP Online bracelet.
The next event on the schedule was the $800 buy-in MONSTER STACK No-Limit Hold’em event #6. A total of 1,797 players joined the 2-day event to create a prize pool of $1,365,720. With the top prize of $173,223.96, it was, as expected, a tough final table. When the last hand finished, it was ‘Jonas Lauch’ taking the top spot and the World Series of Poker Championship bracelet. The runner-up ‘Ilya Anatski’ earned $129,898.60 for second place.
Million Dollar Mystery Bounty
The early centerpiece of the World Series of Poker Online Tournament Series was the record setting Event #7: Million Dollar Mystery Bounty. This event, which claims the title of largest online mystery bounty ever hosted and the single largest online bounty ever offered, had a myriad of starting days (we did what we could to ensure that everyone had a chance to participate) and guaranteed a $10,000,000 prize pool including a $1,000,000 top bounty.
By the end of the day 1’s, a total of 51,003 players joined the festivities and a shot at the Million Dollar bounty. Of the total entrants, only 5,797 survived to day 2 to compete for the $10,200,600 prize pool. The event, which lasted almost 123 hours, saw 9 players earn more than $100K, 5 of whom earned more than $200K. The winner at the end of play was ‘PH14’ who earned $367,953.41 but only sat 3rd on the money list. ‘Ahmedkarrim’, who finished 17th, earned $483,387.41 but it was ‘ItsRumcake’ who found the top bounty and won the biggest share of the prize pool with $1,000,630 for finishing 713th.
Tuesday August 23rd brough Event #8: 6-Handed No Limit Championship to the forefront. The $5,000 buy-in bracelet event intrigued 430 players enough to sign up and compete for a $2,042,500 prize pool. Taking just under 3 hours to complete the final table, it was ‘Daniele Sesta’ taking the top prize and bracelet for the event, earning $400,212.95. ‘WouldIlieToYOU’ finished 2nd for $289,361.76 and the top 5 all earned over $100,000 for their efforts.
Event #9 was a $525 ($250 + $250 + $25) buy-in Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha. While Omaha generally has fewer people playing, the lower buy-in for a World Series of Poker championship bracelet was enough to attract 1,142 players and a prize pool of $571,000. When the final day finished it was ‘Amichai Barer’ claiming victory with $60,888.87 in prizes and the coveted bracelet.
The Weekend Events
The weekend started with the $10,000 buy-in Heads Up NLH Championship. Capped at 128 players, the final 4 were set to play for their share of $702,146.66. The first round saw both ‘ D Sammartino’ and ‘wasabijoyu’ earn $93,619.55 each in their respective losses setting up a final between ‘Dimitar Danchev’ and ‘pikkKsuleln’. Taking just over 2.5 hours from the start of the final 2 tables, it was ‘Dimitar Danchev’ taking the top spot, the bracelet and $327,668.46. Hopefully runner up ‘pikkKsuleln’ is able to find solace in the $187,239.10 she/he earned.
Sunday August 28 played host to 2 WSOP Online bracelet events, the $400 buy-in Event #11: DOUBLE STACK Bounty No-Limit Hold’em and the $10,000 buy-in Event #12 Super MILLION$ High Roller NLH.
