Welcome to Day 3 of WCOOP 91-H: $5,200 NLHE [8-Max, NLHE Main Event] in the 2021 World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP). After two days of action that saw 1,965 entries, the final 72 will return today at 5:05 p.m. GMT to play down to a final table where the winner will take home $1,499,942. The turnout fell just short of the guaranteed $10,000,000 prize pool and created a small overlay.

Loeliger is followed by “Körrinho” in second and Canada’s Tyler "Juicy_J_93" Jardine in third. Other Day 3 qualifiers include Audrius "Stakelis24" Stakelis, Luiz "G1a1u1s1s" Arruda, and Laszlo "Lackoo87gcb" Molnar.
