Niveau 16 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Just a couple of short years ago, only one player had accumulated five WCOOP titles.

Two excellent MTT pros have now taken the lead, both with insane scores – one player has nine WCOOP titles, and another has eight.

With the WCOOP 2020 upon us, all could change again over the coming weeks, but it’s going to take nothing less than a legendary run if anyone is to join the top of the pack.
