Christof Moritz, a 31-year-old footballer from Germany, won the WPT Montreal Closer tournament on PokerStars. The tournament had a buy-in of $530 and was held in the progressive knockout format. Moritz earned approximately $60,000 for his victory.
Moritz, who has been playing for Regensburg since 2020, having transferred from Darmstadt 98, earned $31,000 for the win and $28,000 for eliminations.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
