It was the 21<sup>st<\/sup> day of the series, but the Canadian would have been delighted to claim success in the WCOOP \u2013 63- H: $2,100 NLHE. It has been an exciting festival of poker to this point with some notable standout maiden winners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Included in the list of players that will be high on confidence at present after claiming a first success are Dalton Hobold and Andrey Skvortsov. However, it appears that the overall winner of the WCOOP could be a very familiar face, as Yuri Dzivielevski appears to be leading the way, as he closes in on a fourth championship success. Some poker experts suggest that it is only a matter of time as there are only 44 players remaining in the competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"luelue399-holds-off-strong-field\">Luelue399 Holds Off Strong Field<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest story from around the table over the weekend centred around the success that was achieved by Luelue399. The Canadian player was in excellent form as he was able to hold off talented players such as Luigi D\u2019Alterio and BenArfaa10 in the final rounds. His success saw him walk away with a total prize amount of $171,300. That was made up of $76,339 in prize money and over $90,000 in bounty cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>D\u2019Alterio finished in second place in the standings, and he took home a total amount of $93,862, which included $76,339 in prize money. However, the only other player to walk away with at least $50,000 was BenArfaa, who claimed $57,657 in total prize money for finishing third in the competition. \u2018I\u2019MalliN\u20193lli\u2019 was next on the list, and the player from Malta claimed a total prize fund of $41,198. Kenny Hallaert and \u2018PeroQmaloSoy\u2019 were the next two players on the list. Meanwhile, \u2018proh1t\u2019, Eduardo Pires and \u2018Fear1sWisdow were the final players in the standings to round off the top nine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"devastating-news-in-world-of-poker\">Devastating News In World Of Poker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t all reasons to be cheerful over the weekend, as there was also a heartbreaking piece of news from the United States. It was revealed in Heartland Poker Tour\u2019s co-founder Todd Anderson\u2019s post that Darvin Moon had passed away at the age of 56. Poker fans will be familiar with the amateur, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pokercentral.com\/articles\/what-if-darvin-moon-had-won-the-2009-main-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"undefined (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">finished on the final table of the 2009 WSOP main event<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moon was almost able to pull off one of the biggest shocks that the poker world had seen, and even held the lead at one point while on the final table. However, he would eventually fall in the tense head to head against Joe Cada. But, nevertheless, Moon captured the imagination of the poker world as he managed to turn his $130 buy-in, into just over $5 million. His impact on his fellow players was highlighted by the number of emotional social media posts sent after the news broke.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There was more high adrenaline poker action for players to enjoy over the weekend, as there was a huge win in the World Championship of Online Poker for Luelue399.
