Juninho23 Outlasts Competition To Win GCOOP Main Event

There was a huge poker event that fans would have been drawn to this week, as the final leg of the GCOOP was played out. The winner of the final event of the series was Juninho23, which means that fans would still be buzzing after witnessing his performance from the most recent event.

The player took inspiration from the former Middlesbrough midfielder Juninho, who became a local legend in the North East after an instrumental spell with the club in the Premier League. That same magic was on display with the player in this event, as they held off stern competition from the field to win the event this week.

Huge Prize Pool Up For Grabs

It wasn’t an easy feat for Juninho23, as they needed to outlast a field of 459 other players to win the lucrative first place. The number of players involved meant that there was a prize pool of £45,900 up for grabs for the players involved in the event. That sum meant that the players in the top 64 would all receive their portion of the prize pot from the event. It was a lucrative day for many of the players involved, as eight of the top nine walked away with four-figure returns from their day of poker action.

That unfortunate player to finish in eighth place was ThatA55, who only got returns of £963.90 from their performance. Meanwhile, it was a happier return for DomLimptsche, who claimed £1,147.50 in returns for finishing in seventh place in the standings. 2BetWizKid was the next player on the leaderboard, as he finished in sixth place and won £1,377.00 for his excellent performance. 5winebag finished in fifth place in the standings, which meant that he missed out on a place n the top four on the leaderboard. However, he gained £2,065.50 in returns for an excellent display.

Top Three On Leaderboard

The player to miss out on the top three was AnonymousD, who finished in fourth place. However, he would have still been pleased with his performance, and returns of £2,983.50 would have presented a fine return for that finish. JeffKimberPro finished in third place in the standings, which highlighted an excellent end to the event for the player. The player claimed £4,590.00 for the finish that he achieved. There was huge money up for grabs when it came to the final two players standing, but it was ultimately Juninho23 that topped the leaderboard after seeing off DreadfulDonk.

The player that finished as the runner-up still took home £6,426.00 in prize money. However, Juninho23 would have certainly got all the headlines in the United Kingdom, as he was excellent throughout. That fine display was awarded with £8,399.74 in prize money. It was a captivating performance by the player, and the prize money was a deserved return.
