Alex "AlexGelinski" Gelinski raised to 1,400,000 in early position and "Darwinsfish" called one seat over. In the big blind, chip leader Andy "BowieEffect" Wilson, who also has the biggest progressive bounty of over $10,000, simply moved all in.
Gelinski, with about 18 big blinds behind, let it go and Darwinsfish, with 24 bigs in front of him, also gave it up.

Eduardo "Eduard850" Silva started the final table as the chip leader but dropped two pots to slip to the middle of the pack. In the first hand, he played a single-raised pot against Rasmus "Powergolf" Zerr in the big blind.
On a 
flop, Zerr check-called 1,982,750 from Silva, as well as 2,205,000 on the 
turn. The river was the 
and both players checked. Zerr showed 
for trip sevens and Silva mucked.
Two hands later, Silva opened under the gun, "JEIK0" called in middle position and Zerr called on the button. The flop was 
and Silva continued for 1,575,000 which only "JEIK0" called.
The turn brought the 
and Silva check-called 2,100,000 from "JEIK0". The 
river saw two checks. Silva tabled 
for kings and jacks but "JEIK0" had 
for trip jacks to win the pot.

Just a couple of short years ago, only one player had accumulated five WCOOP titles.
Since then, the picture has changed quite a lot.
Two excellent MTT pros have now taken the lead, both with insane scores – one player has nine WCOOP titles, and another has eight.
With the WCOOP 2020 upon us, all could change again over the coming weeks, but it’s going to take nothing less than a legendary run if anyone is to join the top of the pack.
So as we look forward to the Series, here are the players who have won the most WCOOP titles so far. You’ll also find out who that five-time winner was.

Start-of-the-day chip leader "Darwinsfish" had tumbled all the way down to the 10 big blind mark but found his footing and is making his way up again. The Dutchman won a couple of smaller pots without showdown to get himself out of the danger zone.
In the last hand, he limped in from the small blind to bet 600,000 on a 
flop against Alex "AlexGelinski' Gelinski. On the 
turn, "Darwinsfish" checked, Gelinski bet 693,750, "Darwinsfish" check-raised to 2,400,000 and that was the end of it.
