Record-breaking WSOP Online Main Event
So, now we will move to the WSOPO Main Event, which had a buy-in at the level of $5,000 and the entries counter shot up to 6,023. Thanks to this, we saw a new record prize pool worth up to $28,609,250. The record was previously held by the 2020 WSOP Online Main Event, which was won by Stoyan Madanzhiev. At that time, the prize pool reached the level of $27,559,500, which was a world record in the online space.
So we have a new record set here and who is the winner? The bracelet and $2,783,432 prize went to Bert Stevens, known online as "girafganger7". He played aggressively at the final table and managed to get a massive chip lead. After Ezequiel Kleinman was eliminated in third place for $1,524,214, Stevens went into the final heads-up with 4-1 stacks. His final opponent was Yagen Li from China.
Bert Stevens easily dealt with the Chinese player and became the new champion of the record-breaking WSOPO Main Event. And he did all this in front of his fans, because he streamed his entire success on Twitch.
