Talal ��raidalot�� Shakerchi has the chance to write himself into poker��s history books later today as he returns to the final table of the PokerStars WCOOP Main Event first in chips with only nine players remaining.

Shakerchi could become the first-ever player to win both a SCOOP and WCOOP Main Event. The former hedge fund manager triumphed in the 2016 SCOOP Main Event and banked $1,468,000, his largest score in both the live and online poker worlds. Should Shakerchi come out on top in this event, he would secure an even larger prize worth $1,665,962.

Eighty-six players returned to WCOOP Main Event action on Sep. 24 each sharing the common goal of progressing to the final table. The dream ended prematurely for several big-name players, including Filipe ��Zagazaur�� Oliveira who won $360,309 earlier in the series.

Niklas ��Lena900�� Astedt busted in 69th place for $29,232, the same prize Michael ��imluckbox�� Addamo and Stevan ��random_chu�� Chew collected for their 60th and 53rd place finishes.

A host of players based in the United Kingdom ran out of luck and steam at the wrong time and missed out on a final table berth. Bertie ��bigstealer�� Bayley, Mustapha ��lasagnaaammmm�� Kanit, Adrian ��Amadi_017�� Mateos, Billy ��b8chatz�� Chattaway and Chris ��C12SLY�� Sly all busted on Day 3. As did the start of the day chip leader Jack ��jAkDAriPAA�� O��Neill and Ireland��s Fintan ��easywithaces�� Hand who slive streamed his way to a 23rd place finish worth $50,834.

Who is at the 2019 WCOOP Main Event High Final Table?

Shakerchi is the overwhelming chip leader going into the final nine with a stack of 122,626,562. The Brit��s nearest rival is Belgium��s ��XmorphineX�� who returns to the fray with 82,023,949 chips. The Belgian is in hot form having won $202,421 for their victory in the WCOOP-13-M-$530 NLHE Sunday Million SE at the start of the WCOOP.

Next in terms of chips is Brazil��s Danilo ��dans170���� de Lima Demetrio who is already guaranteed his largest-ever online score by a large margin. Each of the returning nine players has locked up $111,063 while de Lima Demetrio��s previous largest haul was worth $16,456. They return to action with 81,843,549 chips in their stack.

Another British player in the shape of ��BigBlindBets�� has 68,825,817 chips, enough for fourth-place at the restart, and they are joined by a pair of Estonian grinders in ��NeedBeat�� and ��Leitnant�� who have 56,071,362 and 44,901,942 chips respectively.

Even the players in seventh-through-ninth place have plenty of room to maneuver as they have between 28 and 44 big blinds. ��TheMakrill7�� of Sweden, ��19Pisitike93��, and ��moglimiranda�� are the trio who make up the final table.

Finland��s ��Jesseonboss�� Crowned WCOOP Main Event Low Champion

While Shakerchi was busy navigating his way to the chip lead of the $5,200 buy-in WCOOP Main Event, Finland��s ��Jesseonboss�� was making their way to a $130,035 prize and the title of WCOOP-70-L: $55 NLHE 8-Max Main Event champion.

The tournament attracted a total of 37,065 entries who created a $1,853,250 prize pool shared among the top 6,007 finishers. Each of the finalists walked away with at least five-figures, with Leonardo ��Oreo+Coke�� Ramos netting $15,965 for their eighth-place exit.

��Klimbo�� of Canada was the next player to fall before Farcasanu ��alexxt7�� Alexandru and ��thomastom3�� busted out in succession.

This left four players in the hunt for the title, but it seems the vast jumps in pay were too much for them to handle. A deal was struck that saw $12,500 left for the eventual champion. This meant Toth ��SlyderS1�� Bela collected $107,118 for their fourth-place finish instead of the advertised $63,860. Ramiro ��RamiroUY�� Miqueiro banked $128,412 after falling in third-place.

Heads-up was contested between two Finnish players, ��Tobotheman�� losing out to their fellow Finn and having to console themselves with $96,981, leaving the champion to secure a $130,035 payday.
