The Online Poker World Championship keeps moving. During the last hours the third spot has been taken by the grinder Mario A.K.A “oMUZZAo” who plays for the team Australia-Asia-Africa. His performance since he joined the international competition has been remarkable, earning the chance to represent his continental team after becoming the best player of Australia 2 periods in a row leaving behind many rivals of different nationalities.
The path to victory hasn’t been easy for any of the qualifiers who now make part of the OPWC elite and the final goal is still to be defined, but these online poker gladiators don’t give their objectives up, proving their mettle even during a third phase where some newcomers have set incredible records of efficacy and skill. “oMUZZAo” climbed to the third place just a couple units behind the European competitor “Kevster102” and some dare to think the Australian could still get very close to the current ruling shark of the field: Eleanor “Ellie91” a British shark who has crushed any existent personal mark with an astounding result of approximately 2.0 points per game.
With today’s Poker Ranking Europe loses a bit of terrain on Top 10 to let the Australians absorb it; there’s still another player from this continental team who could improve even more the collective mark and achieve a greater triumph; nonetheless there’re also many players from the Old Continent who still have tournaments available and while the timer reaches the deadline, they could come back and claim what is theirs.
Meanwhile at the bottom of the list some players have activated their point-making machine and we see names like “FreeFelix” and “Bio946” from Greece and the United Kingdom respectively who have come out of the shadows adding almost 10 units to their individual score boards. There are roughly 13 days to keep the pace and make it, at least, to the qualified spots, where the lucky and skilled winners will receive a treat in the juicy-prized poker freeroll named Period Final, which has already given away $1000.
Another player who moved up and is barely 2 spots away from qualification to the Period Final is Alex alias “Chemicalbrother” an online grinder you can find at the tables of the OPWC accepted poker room PKR who has mostly been seen crushing the 6-handed tourneys and lately the 100-man Sit n’ Goes with interesting results which let us have a glance at a potential crown taker who might unleash the total arsenal in the last days of Period III. He currently holds the 39th position.

10 spots above, comes the North Hampton’s child Kevin “Zxdakev” Martin who counts 43 units and is already qualified for the Period Final. This is the first time he achieves the privileged spots and his participation on the freeroll is becoming every day more interesting to rail. Several new comers are also standing at a prized place, but whether they hold it till the final moment or lose it to a last-minute rounder is yet to be known.
