Day 18 at the WSOP Super Circuit Online Series witnessed the arrival of Alex Foxen, GPI Player of the Year 2018 & 2019. Foxen ran deep in a couple of events while bumping the rail in a couple of others. We will track his progress in the coming days but for now, high praises go to Jonathan Van Fleet and KathyLehne for becoming the day’s top earners.
If you are just getting wind of this ongoing series, it is the largest online event ever staged. It opened on May 3rd at GG Network Natural8 and will run until May 31st. Over the 29 days, 18 Ring Events and 577 side events fill the roster along with an enormous $ 100,000,000 in prizes guaranteed.
To date, 11 gold rings have been claimed, 314 games won, and $ 79 million paid out. Eleven days left to take part, cash in, and grab any of the remaining 7 gold rings.
Update: WSOPC Ring Event #12: Monster Stack $500K GTD
The next chance to lock in one of the WSOP gold rings is coming up in three days at the WSOPC Ring Event #12: Monster Stack $500K GTD.
