The latest round of PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker titles have been won and there were some big names among those taking the top prizes. Polish poker legend Dzmitry Urbanovich, All-Time Online Money List leader Joao Vieira, and former Sunday Million winner Mantas ‘bagoch’ Bagočius all took home titles while notable pros Patrick Leonard, […]

The first round of the PocketFives #1 Number One contest is complete and while all four #1 seeds had little trouble advancing to the second round, there were five first round upsets which could change the fates of a few of the former #1-ranked players.

Chris Moorman is easily one of the most – if not the most – decorated players in PocketFives history. He’s been the #1-ranked player 13 different times and has held that spot for a combined 23 weeks. He was the first player to break $10 million and $15 million in lifetime earnings.

Conor Beresford has held down the #1 spot on the PocketFives Rankings since mid-May but on Wednesday he added something to his list of accomplishments that has been missing until now: a PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker title.

That’s a wrap on the 2020 World Series of Poker as the final event of the series, Event #83 ($10,000 WSOP Super MILLION$) concluded with Connor Drinan eliminating his final six opponents to collect the $1,423,409 first-place prize and his first career gold bracelet.

All good things must come to an end. And that end has come for the PCA. As PocketFives reported, when PokerStars announced the return of the PSPC in 2020 they also, unceremoniously, announced that the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure would not be back in 2020, ending its run of 16 years.

Markku ‘markovitsus’ Koplimaa had himself a very busy – and very fruitful – July as took down the PocketFives Leaderboard for the month. Koplimaa picked up 2,601 PLB points through his 20 qualifying cashes to win the Monthly PLB for the first time in his career.

It’s been almost nine years since Chris Oliver took over the #1 spot on PocketFives for the first time. On Sunday, Oliver showed the world that while it’s been a minute since he was on top, he’s still capable of closing down a big tournament.

Sunday was the busiest day on the partypoker POWERFEST schedule by far with 25 different titles on the line. The biggest winner on the day was UK grinder ‘SpiritDNA‘ who banked $154,000 in a Super High Roller event. He wasn’t the only big winner though. A former PocketFives #1-ranked player won a title as did […]

Wednesday might have been the midweek point for the 9-5 set, but for online poker players it was Day 4 of partypoker POWERFEST and there were 15 titles handed out with four of those coming in High Roller events.

In the illustrious history of the PocketFives Rankings, 55 different players have managed to hold down the #1 spot. This edition of the RANK & FILE focuses on how those players did during the 2018 World Championship of Online Poker.

Twelve more World Championship of Online Poker events came to their conclusion on Monday topped with the crowning of a new Sunday Million champion.

There was one last opportunity for players to claim a partypoker Powerfest title yesterday as the series came to its conclusion. Powerfest featured 85 events over two weeks across the Mini, Small, Medium, Large, High Roller and Super High Roller buy-ins with $40m in guaranteed prizes.

There seems to be a massive tournament series going on every week these days in online poker. The higher buy-in events create massive prize pools with huge money up for grabs, and one big score like that can catapult a player up the money lists.
