Table Of Contents
The 2023 Global Poker U.S. Poker Open online series, which began Aug. 21, concluded on Sunday with the final four tournaments. One player — "FlushMe2Tears" — finished with four wins during the series, while "amx" and "FishSamich" won their respective leaderboards.
There were 32 Gold Coins (GC) — 16 Low and 16 High — tournaments in the USPO on Global Poker, along with 32 Sweeps Coins (SC) events.
In our last recap, we gave you the scoop on winners from the first 12 events, and "FlushMe2Tears" had already won three of those on the GC side. The online poker player added on yet another one in Event #13-H, GC 99,000 Super Deep No-Limit Hold'em for GC 5,790,000. No one else won more than two, and that includes the SC players.

It may come as a surprise that "FlushMe2Tears" wasn't the series champion, although you could argue this player was the most impressive performer with four titles. But "amx," who won Event #14-H for GC 7,681,951, compiled the most points and narrowly beat out the four-time winner.
