Team tonkaaaa Close the Gap with Talbot's Second WCOOP Title in Four Days
Last Thursday, Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot clinched his fifth World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) title with a win in the HORSE Championship. His stay in the five-time winner's club was brief—lasting just four days—before Talbot captured yet another WCOOP victory.
The WCOOP League captain had even more reasons to celebrate as teammates "ShipitFTW911" and Niklas "Lena900" Astedt joined him on the podium in WCOOP 32-H: $1,050 NLHE [Progressive KO, Saturday KO]. Team tonkaaaa's impressive one-two-three finish propelled them into second place on the leaderboard, overtaking Team easywithaces. Team peace&loove remained the team to catch over the weekend, as Sebastian "peace&loove" Huber's side kept their position at the top but can undoubtedly feel the heat that Team tonkaaaa has brought over the last few days.
In other WCOOP highlights from Sunday, undrafted Joao "Naza114" Vieira entered the WCOOP winner's circle for the 11th time in his career, after a standout performance in the star-studded WCOOP 34-H: $2,100 NLHE [Turbo].
