While Team L. Veldhuis has had little to celebrate over WCOOP, captain Lex Veldhuis is looking to change that in the $2,100 World Championship of 8-Game.

The initial field of 62 entries has been whittled down to the final nine players, with Lex Veldhuis currently leading the pack and eyeing the $38,530 first-place prize. However, hot on his heels in second place is the formidable "FAL1st," one of the favorites to win, as they aim for their eighth career WCOOP title.

WCOOP Boot Camp draftee "king153246" from Team peace&loove also remains in the hunt, along with "ShipitFTW911" from Team tonkaaaa. A victory from either "FAL1st" or "king153246" would all but guarantee the WCOOP League title for Team peace&loove, putting their lead beyond reach.

With so much at stake, the final table promises to deliver high drama as WCOOP League picks duel for WCOOP glory.
