Default WCOOP Main Event

I woke up this morning, looked on PokerStars to see how many WCOOP games were left because I hadn't been keeping track of them, and saw that the Main Event had been going on for 17 hours. With 3 players left, it has been running nearly 19 straight hours. Vanessa "Lady Maverick" Rousso is still playing but in last place. First prize is over $1.3 million. I'm going to try and watch the rest of it. They haven't made a deal yet. I'm curious to see if Vanessa would be willing to chop the money since she seems to be the only pro remaining.

Im watching it now. She is out. Wouldn't it be something to know someone who actually went deep in this? Food for thought. Maybe next time if anyone is interested we can all pitch in and get one person whom we all know and know they are capable of winning/going deep to play? Who's got the patience and stamina here?

TheVoid took down about $1.2 million. I checked his pokerdb and he had never even played an MTT on PokerStars before. Who is this guy? I was pretty impressed with some of the playing during heads-up. The final hand was pretty sick. AK vs KQ all-in preflop and KQ rivers a straight.

Yeah nothing wrong with the headsup. The last hand was as you said kind of sick... i woulden't have moved in with KQ with that much money involved!

The prizepool is just amazing, too see that kind of cash online is cool

I railed Rousso from 2 to 5 am.

(Yes, As typed this I noted the suggestive pun.)

Anyway, there was one spot she put the money in preflop A2 & ran into AQ

She ended up making trip dueces.

I couldn't stay up watching so I checked the results today to see where she finished.

Interesting.
