The 2009 World Championship of Online Poker has come to a close, and Yevgeniy “Jovial Gent†Timoshenko took down the Main Event title. The buy in for the PokerStars WCOOP Main Event was $5,200 and it had 2,144 players enter at their chance to take down the title. The total prize pool for the event was $10,720,000 with a first place prize of $1,715,200.
Going into the final table, Dan “djk123†Kelly had the chip lead, but it didn’t take long for Timoshenko put the pressure on his opponents. Timoshenko lucked out when he faced Kelly’s pocket tens against his pocket kings. The flop gave Timoshenko a set which was enough to knock Kelly out in fourth place. Timoshenko became a dominating force when he knocked out “reddeevil†in third place. “Udon Wannit†wasn’t able to overcome and busted in second place for a cool $1,286,400.
