WCOOP 2024: The Champions So Far and the Tables Yet to Come

The World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) is in full swing, and poker enthusiasts from all over the world cannot only participate in these legendary tournaments but can also watch their favorite online streamers seal the deal live on Twitch!

Both PokerStars team members Lex Veldhuis and Parket Talbot already have a WCOOP title under their belt and both are on the hunt for more glory! The good thing about the WCOOP is that there is action every single day, and the online streamers are spending more hours behind their computers than ever before.

It gives unique insights into how heavy it must be to keep on grinding daily and to maintain a healthy lifestyle as well. Sometimes we are asking ourselves if it doesn’t hit the players on a mental level, as we saw Lex Veldhuis dressed up as Ali G stealing the spotlights. To make it even more lit, he won his WCOOP title dressed like this!

The WCOOP event series will be halfway through after today, meaning around 60 more events are coming up. We have gathered a list of recent winners for you, of which some of them won already several WCOOP events before.
