PokerStars Twitch has begun it's broadcast with James Hartigan and Joe Stapleton live in the booth. They'll comment on all the action of WCOOP-71-H: $1,050 NLHE Sunday Warm-Up SE, as well as WCOOP-73-H: $10,300 PLO Main Event with cards-up coverage, so make sure to check it out!
Due to yesterday's bumper schedule, the seven remaining players from Saturday's WCOOP-69-H: $10,300 8 Game [High Roller] received an extra day of rest to focus on the Sunday grind before returning to conclude one of the toughest events on the calendar. Tonight, the wait is over, and at 6:05 p.m. UTC, the seven that remain out of a field of 67 will continue their quest for WCOOP glory.
The $670,000 prize pool will be fully divided among these matadors, with each of them guaranteed at least $28,088 for their efforts. The winner will receive the lion's share, promising a payday of $235,531, as well as the WCOOP title and accompanying bragging rights for conquering one of WCOOP's most skill-intensive tournaments.
