Patrick "pads1161" Leonard's heroics in the $1,050 World Championship of Razz helped Team peace&loove remain at the top of the WCOOP League, but Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot's impressive runner-up finish in the $5,200 NLHE 6-Max Turbo High Roller helped keep Sebastian Huber's team within touching distance.

Although September 20 is a well-deserved rest day for the WCOOP grinders, some huge events conclude on September 21 that could have ramifications for the league standings.

Talbot leads the final five in the $10,300 8-Game High Roller, where he locks horns with the likes of Denis "aDrEnalin710" Strebkov and Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski among others.

The $2,100 edition of the Thursday Thrill is down to 18 hopefuls, including several WCOOP League players. They include Felipe "lipe piv" Boianovsky and Pedro "PaDiLhA SP" Padilha of Team Aakkari, Kelvin "Kelvin_FR:AR" Kerber of Team Spraggy, and "ShipifFTW911" of Team tonkaaaa.

Exciting times are ahead.

While Patrick "pads1161" Leonard was busy helping himself to his 10th WCOOP title, Joao "Naza114" Vieira was navigating his way to the final table of WCOOP 63-H: $5,200 NLHE 6-Max Turbo High Roller. Eventually, Vieira found himself heads-up against Parker "Tonkaaaa" Talbot, knowing that if he won, he'd win his 13th career WCOOP title while denying Talbot his seventh.

The clash of the titans went Vieira's way, and he closed the gap on WCOOP title leader Benny "RunGodlike" Glaser to only two victories.
