Another WCOOP, Another Title for Vieira

Joao Vieria
Joao Vieria

Joao "Naza114" Vieira has once again made WCOOP headlines by winning his 11th title. The remarkable achievement spans from his first win in 2018 and is even more mind-blowing that he had a dry spell in 2020.

Vieira’s latest triumph came in WCOOP 34-H: $2,100 NLHE [Turbo], which attracted 124 entries and created a $248,000 prize pool. Vieira edged out Ivan "ILS007" Stokes in a heads-up battle to secure the triumph and a first-place prize of $54,358.

Dzivielevski is WCOOP League's MVP So Far

Yuri Dzivielevski
Yuri Dzivielevski

Heading into the second week of WCOOP, Brazilian maestro Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski stands out as the most valuable WCOOP League pick, contributing 950 of Team AAkkari's 1,695 points. Close behind is compatriot Renan "Internett93o" Bruschi, who has accumulated 855 points for Team easywithaces, making him the second-best pick to date. Rounding out the top three is "FAL1st," who bagged their fourth WCOOP title on Thursday.

Denis "aDrENalin710" Strebkov is next on the list with 620 points from his 12th WCOOP first-place finish, proving to be Team L. Veldhuis' most significant asset. Interestingly, for Team tonkaaaa, it’s not Talbot (400 pts) leading the charge but 2024 WSOP Main Event bronze medalist Astedt, who is the only other player to surpass the 600 points mark.

Benjamin "Spraggy" Spragg has contributed 340 points, working hard to pull Team Spraggy out of the bottom ranks, but the team continues to struggle at the lower end of the standings.
