Linus Løliger's Triumph: High Stakes at WCOOP #43-High
The WCOOP series on PokerStars is nearing its conclusion, with the main event starting today with a $5,200 buy-in and a $10 million guarantee. The series has seen impressive performances from Russian players, including Dennis Strebkov, who won five tournaments, including three championships: High in Razz, 8-Game, and Stud Hi-Lo. Arseny Karmatsky and Leqenden each won one tournament in No-Limit Hold'em (High and Medium respectively).
Dmitry Urbanovich won the expensive HORSE tournament, and Mordnilap defended his title in the Limit Hold'em Championship, defeating Phil Galfond in the heads-up final. Dennis Strebkov leads the overall standings with 1,215 points, followed by Maxim Pisarenko with 965 points.
The #43-High tournament, a No-Limit Hold'em Championship with a $25,000 buy-in, had a prize pool of $2,550,600. Linus Løliger, Henrik Heklen, and Jorid Urlings were among the finalists. Linus Løliger emerged as the chip leader in the final stages of the tournament.

Argus RivenI'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.
