Elliott "elliottpet" Peterman Wins Maiden WCOOP Title in WCOOP-42-H: $5,200 NLHE ($146,932)
Elliott "elliottpet" Peterman Peterman made the most of a minor overlay and topped a field of 136 entries in WCOOP-42-H: $5,200 NLHE to claim the top prize of $146,932 after defeating Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic in a short-lived heads-up battle. The nine-handed final table was filled with numerous WCOOP champions, a club which Peterman has now joined after wrapping up the business end of the tournament in under three and a half hours.
The multiple WCOOP winners Sam "Str8$$$Homey" Greenwood, Dzmitry "Colisea" Urbanovich, and Andras "probirs" Nemeth were also among the contenders as well but came up short of going all the way.
