Fifth SCOOP Title for Gathy and First Double SCOOP Winner on Day 3
Day 3 of the 2025 Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) delivered non-stop thrills as 22 champions emerged from the online arena, each etching their names into the festival’s history book.
Belgium’s own Michael "merla888" Gathy added yet another trophy to his collection, claiming his fifth SCOOP title but it was "sixsixxsix" who stole the show, becoming the first player of the series to win two titles in a single night.
Among the 22 winners, 14 players broke through for the first time, while others triumphantly returned to the SCOOP spotlight.
Two-time club members now include "JDigweed7", Yuri "tecaoo" Martins Gama, Vitor “vitoradiron” Adiron, and "devsdynamite", each adding a second title to their resumé. Meanwhile, "hello_totti" and Arsenii "josef_shvejk" Karmatckii reached an elite milestone with their third career SCOOP victories.
After capturing his ninth SCOOP title and 20th COOP title overall on Monday, Patrick “pads1161” Leonard came close to going back-to-back in 2025. He finished runner-up in SCOOP 11-H: $1,050 NLHE PKO, earning $24,293. The title went to Andorra’s “PeroQmaloSoy”, who claimed their first-ever SCOOP win, banking $17,231 plus a hefty $27,176 in bounties.
We’ll be taking a closer look at some of these standout champions throughout the day, diving into the events nearing their final stretch, and breaking down all the key updates from the ever-evolving SCOOP League leaderboard.
