Hand Eliminated by "d7o1d1s0"

Level 19 : 10,000/20,000, 2,500 ante
Hand vs d7o1d1s0
Hand vs d7o1d1s0

A raise to 42,800 by "d7o1d1s0" saw Fintan "easywithaces" Hand jam the last 318,975 in the cutoff and he was quickly called by the initial raiser.

Fintan "easywithaces" Hand: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
"d7o1d1s0": {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Hand took the lead on the {k-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop but it was a short-lived one as the {j-Hearts} appeared right away on the turn to restore the preflop order. A blank {4-Clubs} river brought no miracle for the PokerStars ambassador and Hand joined the rail.

WhaTisL0v3 eliminated

"JiGGz22" limped and called a raise to 53,444 by table neighbor "WhaTisL0v3" to then check-call a bet of 30,000 on the {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop.

On the {5-Spades} turn, they check-raised from 130,000 to 260,000 and "WhaTisL0v3" called all-in for the 120,708 they had behind.

"WhaTisL0v3": {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
"JiGGz22": {6-Spades}{4-Spades}

The {j-Spades} on the river brought no flush for "WhaTisL0v3" as they joined the list of casualties.

Waigel vs Horseman4444

Hungary's "xnrobix" raised to 42,000 from middle position and was called by Ezequiel "eze88888" Waigel from one seat over and "Horseman4444" in the big blind. On a flop of {q-Spades}{8-Spades}{7-Hearts}, "Horseman4444" check-raised all-in for 900,463 to force our "xnrobix" as Waigel bet 89,000 and subsequently called all-in for less.

Ezequiel "eze88888" Waigel: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}
"Horsman4444": {q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The {2-Hearts} turn brought no help and the {8-Hearts} river ended the bid of Waigel for a second WCOOP-H Main Event title.

Jargo "bungakat" Alavali: {a-Clubs}{j-Spades}

The dominated ace of Pateychuk found no help on the {k-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades} board and the Russian was gone well before the money.

WCOOP 2020 Winner Gavin “gavz101” Cochrane Offers Advice on Dealing with Downswings after “turbulent but fun” 10 Years

Gavin Cochrane WCOOP

Gavin “gavz101” Cochrane has been playing for over a decade, usually tearing up cash games and occasionally crossing over into the tournament arena to put a few notches on his record. Last week, he won event 26-H for $63,236k, claiming the first WCOOP win of his illustrious poker career.

Speaking of his win, Cochrane says, “It feels like it’s about time! I’ve played enough WCOOPs. I’m happy to win in 5 card PLO, as I really enjoy playing that game.”

He describes his 10+ year long poker journey as “pretty turbulent, but lots of fun.”

Cochrane was once involved in some of the most insane cash games of all time, including regular $100/$200 sessions against players such as Viktor “Isildur1” Blom. In one particularly memorable session, Cochrane came off $600k in profit against Blom. Another time, Cochrane won $150k in a single hand against Scott Palmer.

“I had quite a lot of gamble in my twenties – loved the high stakes and big swings. But I feel that urge less these days,” says Cochrane. “I still have a lot of love for the game, but I have a very different relationship with poker these days. It doesn’t consume me like it used to.”

Steven "SvZff" van Zadelhoff dropped to a shorter stack and ultimately got those last blinds in out of the small blind to get called by "akayagi44" in the big blind.

Steven "SvZff" van Zadelhoff: {k-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
"akayagi44": {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

The {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop provided an additional flushdraw for the Dutchman but he bricked the {6-Spades} turn and {4-Hearts} river.

"cigarromata" Eliminated by Rudolph

Brazil's "cigarromata" defended the big blind against a raise of 54,500 by Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph and checked the {q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop, which led to a bet of 37,500 by Rudolph. His opponent check-raised to 100,000 and earned a call to then jam the {a-Clubs} turn and pick up a snap-call.

"cigarromata": {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}

The top set of Rudolph had the checkmark as a meaningless {10-Clubs} peeled off on the river.
