Watch Talbot's Latest WCOOP Triumph
Final table action begins at 02:49:17
The double elimination "BRzRoll" and "dujo123" by "Dimisi777" meant the final table started with eight players. Talbot entered as the chip leader but was even more delighted that two of his teammates joined him at the FT.
The first elimination didn't take long as "Manolo Poppe" despatched short stack "Grazza" in the first few hands. They then flipped 2024 EPT Monte Carlo Main Event seventh-place finisher Jonathan "johnyguedes1" Guedes to the wrong side of the rail with pocket jacks.
"ShipitFTW911" then found jacks to bust Dean "DeanoSupremo" Lyall, with Talbot cheering on from the sidelines despite his friendship with Lyall.
"Oh s***, oh s***! Hold for Shipit. I do love Deano but he's on my team. Don't do it. Nice dude," commentated Talbot as the board ran out.
Talbot started to distance himself from the field during five-handed play, solidifying his lead when his Big Slick took down "Dimisi777." Shortly after, he further tightened his grip on the title by stacking "Manolo Poppe."
"Yes, dude, I got three! All three of us are top three!" gushed Tablot as he salivated at the thought of all those WCOOP points.
"ShipitFTW911" kicked off the friendly fire by flushing out Astedt in third place, setting up a heads-up battle with Talbot, who held a commanding 3:1 chip lead. Despite the Swedish player's efforts to turn the tide, Talbot stood his ground, giving nothing away. In the final hand, Talbot flopped a pair of aces, while "ShipitFTW911" hit a pair of sevens. After Talbot shoved on the river, "ShipitFTW911" made a hero call for his tournament life, only to see the pot and the title slide over to his captain.
"Damn bro, that's pretty f****** cool, man. I'm not going to lie. When I woke up today, I did not expect to win $72,000 and a WCOOP while getting top three with two of my buds and two of my f****** leaderboard picks," said Talbot as he rounded out his tournament stream.
