After Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis captured his first World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP) title earlier in the series, and Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot added another four to his tally, Sebastian "peace&loove" Huber is the latest Team PokerStars member to become a 2024 WCOOP champion.
Huber has racked up over 50 cashes during the current WCOOP, but none will ever be as memorable as his result in the WCOOP 88-L: $11 H.O.R.S.E. 6-Max because that is the event where Huber captured his second WCOOP victory. Huber last won a WCOOP event in 2022, taking down the $5.50 No-Limit Hold'em 7-Max PKO.
A field of 1,386 generated a $13,582 prize pool, and Huber outlasted them all. The PokerStars ambassador reeled in $2,097 for his victory and a bagfull of WCOOP League points. Like how Veldhuis won his maiden WCOOP title, Huber won his while streaming on Twitch. The main difference was Huber was not dressed like Ali G at the time!

Huber's win helped Team peace&loove add 355 points to their tally, and they now hold a commanding 965-point lead over Team tonkaaaa. Team easywithaces are currently in third. They closed the gap on Team tonkaaaa to 235 points thanks to Renan "Internett93o" Bruschi triumphing in the WCOOP 88-H: $1,050 H.O.R.S.E. 6-Max for $22,498 and his seventh title.
Time is rapidly running out for anyone to catch Huber and his team, who already have one hand on the trophy.
Romania's Vlad "dariepoker" Darie won his maiden WCOOP title on September 25, and what a way to get the proverbial monkey off his back. Darie came out on top in WCOOP 86-H: $5,200 NLHE Super Tuesday and reeled in $132,607 only a few days after helping himself to a $633,000 score in the WSOP Online International festival.
This $5,200 buy-in event drew in 121 entrants who fought it out over the $605,000 prize pool. The top 15 players were paid, with Adrian "Amadi_017" Mateos popping the money bubble when he fell in 16th place.
By the time the final table was reached, the nine surviving players had locked in $17,611 and were only eight eliminations away from that massive top prize.
