WCOOP vs WSOP Online Statistics

We have compared two of the biggest online poker series, WCOOP and WSOP Online, highlighting their differences and evolution throughout the years.

WCOOP, established in 2002 by PokerStars, has a long history with over 2,445 events and a massive $1.3 billion prize pool, catering to all levels of players. However, its popularity dipped after the 2010 UIGEA law and struggled with overlays in recent years.

On the other hand, WSOP Online, launched in 2020, grew rapidly during the pandemic, focusing on fewer events but offering high-value gold bracelets. Both series are now competing fiercely for online poker dominance, each with its unique appeal.
