Natural8 2020 WSOP Online Performance of the Week: Ryan "protential" Laplante Cashes 9 Events in a Row

Chad Holloway

Level 28 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

The 2020 World Series of Poker (WSOP) online bracelet events began at the beginning of July and will run through September 6th. It is comprised of 85 WSOP gold bracelets on the digital felt across two different clients: WSOP.com and GG Poker.

Each week, we’ll highlight those players who rise to the top through their performance, be it a dominating one in a single event, or an exhibition of consistency over several tournaments. Here’s a look at the POTWs thus far:

Through the first 22 events of the 2020 WSOP online series, no player had cashed more events than Learn Pro Poker founder and coach Ryan "protential" Laplante, who had 14 scores to his credit (more than any other player) totaling a combined $35,163.

While Laplante failed to make any final tables, let alone win one, his consistency was a testament to his hard work and professionalism as a poker player. The former bracelet winner epitomized what it means to be a grinder.

However, what was really impressive last week was the fact that Laplante had cashed the nine tournaments in a row.

Don't Miss the New Feature "WSOP History: An Oral History of ChipTic"

Chad Holloway

Level 26 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

At the 2012 World Series of Poker, a shiny new product received its public unveiling. Players and fans the world over were introduced to a program with revolutionary potential. It could track the chip ebbs and flows of every player in a tournament while also serving as the back end operating system to run said tournament. It promised the ability to change the way poker tournaments were followed, with players and fans interacting at the stroke of a few keys.

That product was ChipTic. And it proved to be a colossal failure.

This is the two-part oral history of ChipTic, from those who experienced it first-hand and witnessed that failure — three former employees, two members of WSOP staff, and two poker media members who watched it implode.
