Alejandro Lococo Triumphs in 2026 WCOOP Main Event


Alejandro Lococo won the $1,050 PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker main event. Lococo earned $343,242 in the four-day online event, claiming his share of a prize pool that eclipsed $2.3 million. He outlasted a field of 2,310 entries to secure the victory. Lococo was one of three WCOOP main event winners at separate buy-in tiers.

Lococo played as ‘[Papo]AR’ during the event. On the final hand, Lococo shoved on the button with Q♦4♠, having his opponent ‘Goodarla’ massively outchipped heads up. The 4♦ river gave Lococo trips, and the theatrics ensued. Lococo stood up and threw his fists in the air in victory.

Lococo narrowly missed out on his second Triton title in recent weeks, finishing second to Klemens Roiter in a Triton Jeju $20,000 no-limit hold’em event. Lococo has $16,981,726 in total recorded tournament earnings. Lococo signed with CoinPoker as an ambassador for the platform.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
