Online poker is being taken to the highest level by the competitors of the World Championship OPWC. The 4th Period has been underway for barely one week and the Top 10 players have already crossed the 60 units mark; Sit and Go tourney grinders from all corners of the globe are meeting at the OPWC to prove who’s the best and take the professional poker sponsorship of $10.000 that will be given to three lucky and skillful participants.
The Europeans are currently dominating the Poker Ranking with players from Germany, Malta and the United Kingdom; “RoyalJoker” the German, has taken the first spot during the last updates of the system and he has kept increasing the point difference he has got over the runner-up while on third position, the Camberley’s gladiator “Kevster102” who has the fans now used to see his name on top of the list, keep on collecting units for his individual score which now reaches a very nice 130 points despite there are still many days available to play.
South America is making the best presentation of the season with their best participant of the moment running on the 4th place of the general ladder; this partial result automatically takes the whole continental team to the second place, being bested only by the mighty European poker force. Whether they keep the pace and claim the crown or get beaten down in the end of the phase depends on their discipline and skills. The Colombian “dhernandezq” has a countryman climbing up at an interesting rhythm: “IronPokerAs” has collected 30 units and stands 25th; both South Americans can be found at the tables of Winner Poker the first is mostly playing 6-man sit and go tourneys while the other prefers the Heads-Up matches.
One important fact is that Germany has significantly increased their participation on Top 10 with 4 players, one of them being the current overall leader of the international online poker competition run by the OPWC. Australians don’t give up so easy and they started moving up as well. “EnglishTim” has claimed the 5th spot and is running very close to the 100 record; his team was the winner of the previous period and he might be trying to keep the title while he gets the ticket to the Main Event in the process. “oMUZZAo” is going up at a more relaxed step and currently holds one spot between the Top 30 some say it’s almost sure we are going to hear from the Aussie in the coming days given that is his modus operandi: like a stealthy hunter he waits and when the moment is right he makes his move like he did just a couple weeks ago to end up winner of Period III.
Another special case to mention is “OmNamahShivaya” a Bulgarian grinder that has been taking down many rivals in just a few days; this apparently great new asset of the European Team might be helping the online poker championship become even hotter than it has been until now. Holding the 6th spot at this moment he is showing a clear and remarkable potential to claim the crown and a seat in the Eliminations. Let’s see what Lady Luck and the candidates to become Champion of the World bring to the arena. The OPWC News team is ready to cover all the action taking place not only inside this competition but also around the planet and at any level. Stay tuned for a new release.
