Michael Addamo

The WPT Online Series kicked off this weekend, including a value-packed Pro Hunt, as the festival returned to partypoker.

The biggest event of the opening weekend was Event #5: $10,300 WPT High Roller that came with a $1,000,000 guarantee.

Once registration closed, the tournament was just one entry shy of the guarantee, but that didn't stop some of the best players in the world gathering, with perhaps the best of them all leading the final 17 players ahead of Day 2 on Monday, May 17.

We've got all the latest news, interviews and more from the 2021 WPT Online Series on partypoker right here on PokerNews. Head to the WPT Online Series Hub to find out more.

Addamo Doing Addamo Things

What is there to say about Michael Addamo? Winner of the MILLIONS Online Mega High Roller back in March, and the WPT World Online Championship Super High Roller last September, it should come as no surprise that the Australian is once again in pole position to win another major online tournament.

Addamo sits with 1.5 million in chips ahead of Argentina's Ramiro Petrone, who is the only other player above one million in chips.
