It was an action-packed night at the World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP), with 22 new champions crowned and several familiar faces reclaiming their spots in the winner's circle.

For the first time since 2020, high-stakes phenom Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos emerged victorious in a WCOOP event. The future Poker Hall of Famer captured his fifth WCOOP title, boosting his point tally for Team easywithaces.

Meanwhile, "FAL1st," a player who has been consistently making headlines in recent weeks, secured his fourth title of this year's series. This latest win further extended his commanding lead on the overall WCOOP leaderboard. With an impressive 2,195 points, he continues to be the MVP for Team peace&loove, whose dominance in the WCOOP League shows no signs of slowing down.

WCOOP Team Captain Lex "L.Veldhuis" Veldhuis also made waves, navigating his way to the chip lead in the World Championship of 8-game, where just nine players remain in contention.
