The WSOP Circuit Online Series completed two days of games and already loads of cash have been awarded. The massive event which advertises a grandiose $ 100 million guarantee is being hosted on the GG Network platform Natural8 with games running daily until May 31.
The first two Ring Events completed yesterday claimed by TheMadQueen and JuanMartinDelPotro54. In addition to TheMadQueen’s first place prize money, TheMadQueen won one of the Natural8 WSOP “Vegas Baby” promo packages worth $ 15,000. More Natural8 promos are up for grabs. We have that info for you below.
Aside from the Ring Events, the past two days saw 36 WSOP Circuit tournaments conclude. Among the winners was the famed German pro, Fedor Holz, who is now the newest GGPoker Ambassador. Other big winners were The_Answer at the $25K High Roller, and for Robin Hood Gang it was a triple crown moment.
For players that reach ITM at the WSOPC events, points were awarded towards the Natural8 leaderboards. We have the top 10 for you listed below as well.
Fedor Holz in action
It is always a thrill to catch Fedor Holz in action albeit live or online. As GGPoker’s newly signed pro Ambassador, Holz did not disappoint his fans. Holz shipped one of the $5K High Roller events for $91K, and cashed in three others for a combined total $ 187K.
Decent start to the WSOPC 🙌 also came 4th in 10k for 88k$.
