"1mSoWeeeaK" Wins WCOOP-72-M: $530 NLHE [8-Max, Main Event] ($504,584)

After just over three hours on the final day of the WCOOP-72-M: $530 NLHE [8-Max, Main Event], "1mSoWeeeaK" showed their strength in the end by taking the tournament down for $504,584 by defeating Yuri "Y.Zakharov" Zakharov heads-up.

"1mSoWeeeaK" came into the final table with a big chip lead and immediately started increasing it by taking a chunk out of Oscar "owilson25" Ramirez's stack. That chip lead was in their hands for most of the day but at some points, Zakharov took it too but those stints didn't last long.

In the end, "1mSoWeeeaK" showed no weakness even when things went a bit haywire to take down inaugural Main Event at this buy-in level.
