PokerStars WCOOP Day 14: “Koln4ever” defeats “PokerProGG” for Bracelet
Day 14 of the2009 World Championship of Online Poker was the last to offer strictly three-figure buy-ins. From here on out, every day will offer at least one four- or five-figure buy-in. The day kicked off with Event 34, a $215 no-limit hold’em affair with big antes. A deal was made three-handed and the eventual heads-up battle would take place between “PokerProGG” and “Koln4ever”. It was a quick battle as “PokerProGG” could not overcome an 8:1 chip deficit. All-in preflop with big slick, “PokerProGG” did not win against “Koln4ever's” pocket threes. The board ran out 8♠Q♣2♣6♦10♠ and “Koln4ever” took down the WCOOP bracelet and the lone six-figure score of the day, $108,282.70.

Event 35, a $320 pot-limit Omaha Hi-Lo tournament, fell a bit short on its guarantee. An overlay of $29,900 came from PokerStars’ wallet. The final four players made a deal and “twenty305” would wind up defeating “drkamikaze1” heads-up to claim the WCOOP bracelet. On the final hand, with the board reading 8♥6♥6♠K♥, they got it all-in. “Drkamikaze1” tabled A♣9♠8♣4♠ for two pair and a low draw, but “twenty305” turned over A♠7♣6♣5♠. Fifth street was the J♦ and “twenty305's” trips were good enough to take down the tournament.
