The 2020 World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) is in full swing, with piles of money already awarded throughout dozens of events. On Sunday, September 20, it's time for the grand finale as the three WCOOP Main Events on PokerStars will see cards in the air, with millions in prizes up for grabs!
The Low edition especially, with a buy-in of $55 and a mouth-watering guarantee of $1,250,000, is a fantastic opportunity to turn a reasonable buy-in into a massive, six-figure prize.
