The first part of WSOP 2020 Online is held on WSOP.com, with mostly American participants. However, players from other countries, including Belarusian Roman Afanasenko, can compete if they are in specific US states.

Notable players in the tournament included Mike Matuozov, Maria Ho, Ben Yu, Jeff Gross, Ryan Laplante, and Chance Kornuth. Roman Afanasenko eliminated four players at the final table, including Chance Kornuth in the heads-up. Roman Afanasenko won $128,000 and his first WSOP gold bracelet, making it the biggest win of his career.

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.
