Wednesday’s action in the PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker included four more players walking away with High titles and a pair of highly-respected online grinders both coming close to a pair of wins.
The big winner was Austria’s ‘flauschi16‘, who beat out a field of 2,679 players to win the half price Super Tuesday for $197,977.83. ‘GadMO‘ finished runner-up for $139,990.26.
Dutch pro ‘FluAnta‘ won Event #8 High ($215 No Limit Hold’em w/rebuys) for $94,644.43 while Lebanon’s ‘abeainy’ took home $69,168.53. Mike ‘goleafsgoeh’ Leah finished seventh for $14,420.96, one of two final tables for the Canadian on Wednesday.
Leah’s other final table appearance came in Event #10 High ($1,050 Stud Hi-Lo) where he finished sixth. Four months after winning a PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker title in Razz, Jerry ‘hummylun’ Wong beat out the 137-player field to win $32,625 and his second WCOOP title.
