Dia 2 Concluído
Another thrilling day of action on the virtual felts saw seven competitors punch their tickets to tomorrow's final table in $10,300 WCOOP 100-H Pot-Limit Omaha Championship. Late registration remained open for the beginning of play today, and a total of 100 bullets were fired, consisting of 57 entries and 43 re-entries. These buy-ins generated a prize pool of $1,000,000. Each of the remaining players has already locked up at least $43,986.40, with tomorrow's champion taking home $233,532.10.
The final table is made up largely of unfamiliar names, but not entirely. Perhaps most notable is Joao "Naza114" Vieira. The all-time Portugal money leader has racked up close to $8,000,000 in live winnings according to The Hendon Mob. The Finnish Aku "Aku1206" Joentausta is another name to watch heading into the final day. However, it will be "Imbajimbaa" of Denmark sitting down with the biggest stack, the only player with over 100 big blinds. However, Sweden's "anonymstruts" is not too far behind.

With late entry open and a starting stack still worth more than 20 big blinds at the start of play, the first level of today's action saw many players buy-in. These included Benny "RunGodlike" Glaser, Sam "Str8$$$Homey" Greenwood, and Patrick "pads1161" Leonard, among plenty of others.
Three well known names in Talal "raidalot" Shakerchi, Ka Kwan "kaju85" Lau, and Pascal "Pass_72" Lefrancois fell in 18th, 17th, and 16th places respectively, falling just short of the money bubble. After their eliminations, the first session of hand-for-hand play started. It would wrap up not too long after when Daniel "Oxota" Dvoress ran into his opponent's set and was sent to the rail to burst the bubble.
Once the bubble burst, it wouldn't be too much longer until the next hand-for-hand would be reached on the final table bubble. In the interim, the likes of Andras "probirs" Nemeth (14th - $20,078.90) and Rui "RuiNF" Ferreira (13th - $20,078.90) busted.
Once down to the final eight, hand-for-hand play commenced once again. This time, it would last nearly two hours, as players continued trading chips and short stacks continued doubling to keep their hopes alive. During this time, Joentausta took down a 4,000,000 chip pot, only to be outdone when "Imbajimbaa" won a more than 6,000,000 chip pot. Just two hands later, it was Christopher "lissi stinkt" Frank who was eliminated in 8th place for a cash of $33,868.20, bursting the final table bubble.
The remaining seven will resume play tomorrow, Tuesday, October 3rd at 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Play will resume midway through Level 26, where blinds are 35,000/70,000 with a 7,000 ante. Play will continue until a winner is determined.
