Share on Twitter Share on Facebook 4 min readThere was action everywhere you looked on Monday night as all six WCOOP Main Events continued on PokerStars, and titles continued to be won in the most prestigious online poker festival around.
Team easywithaces and Team tonkaaaa picked up titles courtesy of Patrick "pads1161" Leonard and Niklas "Lena900" Astedt respectively. This was Leonard's second of the year and Astedt's fourth, with both players winning the 11th WCOOP titles of their careers.
Meanwhile, Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis is the last Team Pro standing in this year's Main Events, and will be looking forward to play resuming later this evening.
All three PLO Main Events will play down to a winner on October 1, but all eyes will be on WCOOP 111-L: $109 PLO Main Event with just 18 players remaining from a field of 2,103.
Sitting fourth in chips is Lex "L. Veldhuis" Veldhuis who will be licking his lips at the prospect of adding another title and taking home the $31,378 top prize, after winning his first WCOOP trophy earlier this series.
Leading the way is "vavan199212" with the only other WCOOP League participant being Team Spraggy's Simon "C. Darwin2" Mattsson who sits eighth in chips.

Former Main Event champion Fedor "CrownUpGuy" Holz fell short of the money, with just 63 places paid. The unfortunate bubble boy was Alexey "avr0ra" Borovkov, with the likes of Ilya "Leqenden" Anatsky and Alexandros "Pwndidi" Theologis finishing in the money.
