WCOOP 2025 Concludes with Surprising Results and Notable Wins
The WCOOP 2025 poker series has concluded, marking a significant event in the poker community. The main event, with a $10k buy-in, attracted 407 entries, showcasing the series' enduring popularity despite a decline in participant numbers over the years.
The winner of the main event was Жиль Симон, who defeated Игорь 'arodnaS' in a thrilling heads-up match. This victory is particularly notable because the prize for the main event winner was less than $1 million, the first time this has happened since 2007. The decreasing number of participants has been a trend, with 502 entries in 2024 and 600 in 2023, indicating a shift in the tournament's dynamics.
In the medium main event, the winner was Богдан 'MiMikyolo' from the FunFarm team. Beriuzy also made a significant impact, winning the low category event, which was his second win of the week. Additionally, Pascal 'Pass_72' Lefrancois secured a victory in the PLO main event with a $10k buy-in, adding to the list of impressive performances.

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.
