PokerStars mixed things up at this year's WCOOP with an eight-game tournament in the eighth event of the 2008 series, held on September 8th. 1,128 players entered the tourney, generating a prize pool of $338,400.
The games they would play included:
The winner of the event would earn, in addition to a coveted WCOOP bracelet and more than $50,000, much respect in the poker world. Why? It takes a lot of poker skill to master all of these games in a field such as this.
The final two agreed to a deal in honor of their significant achievement. Seitz33 and Ulett_23 agreed to evenly split $46,797 with $4,000 left for the winner. During a round of deuce-to-seven-triple draw, Ulett_23 won the day with an 8-low vs. the 10-low Seitz held.
Here are the final results:
1) Ulett_23 - $50,797.28 2) Seitz333 - $46,797.28 3) Booster_JJ - $30,456.00 4) osten - $23,688.00 5) SC72A - $17,766.00 6) Andrejkovics - $11,844.00
