5 Things You Don��t Know About the WSOP Online on GGPoker

Now through the first part of September, the WSOP Online will be exclusively on GGPoker, so whether you're playing on the client for the first time or you're a seasoned online pro, we thought we'd bring you five things you didn't know about the WSOP Online on GGPoker.

  • 1. STAKING on DAY 2:
    Poker fans and players can now buy a piece of their favourite player's action or sell their own should they survive Day 1 of phased tournaments.
  • 2. Convert Multiple Event Tickets into T$
    After the series has finished, your unused tickets will be exchanged for T$ that you can use to enter any tournament on GGPoker
  • 3. Pick Your Own WSOP Event
    When the WSOP Online schedule on GGPoker was announced, the poker community was intrigued to see a new type of bracelet event announced! Three 'People's Choice' events were announced, with the formats and buy-ins yet to be announced.
  • 4. Best Stack Forward
    Any player that makes it to the end of a Day 1 with a stack is allowed to take part in additional Day 1s if they want to, providing they have not exceeded the maximum number of re-entries.
    However, if a player finishes multiple Day 1s with chips, only the highest chip stack will go to Day 2.
  • 5. Take Advantage of Bubble Protection
    GGPoker's popular Bubble Protection is available throughout the WSOP Online. It's available for all non-phase events with buy-ins less than $999. This means that if you register before the start of play and go on to bubble the tournament, you'll receive your buy-in back.

Break

Alyssa MacDonald and David Peters are on a six-minute break. In the penultimate hand before the break, MacDonald called a check-raise from Peters on a {k-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop before calling 102,400 on the {7-Spades} turn.

On the {3-Clubs} river, Peters check-folded to a bet of 256,000 to put the pair with nearly equal stacks into the break.

MacDonald Extends Lead Over Peters

In the first level of the day, Alyssa MacDonald has been getting the better of David Peters. While the vast majority of pots have been very small, MacDonald was able to extract value with a set of fives on a {9-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} board. She raised the turn to 51,200 and bet 115,200 on the river, which Peters called off with {k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}.

In the other bigger pot, MacDonald called a preflop raise to 28,160 with {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and called bets of 14,080 on the {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop and a pot-sized bet of 84,480 on the {2-Clubs} turn.

Peters gave up on the {q-Spades} river and showed down {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} to see MacDonald move up over 2M.
