Aleksejs Ponakovs Table Of Contents
The 2022 World Championship Of Online Poker (WCOOP) may be all but done and dusted, with only the rescheduled Main Events awaiting the crowning of their champion, but that does not mean there are not any massive prizes being dished out at PokerStars . The weekend produced some fantastic scores, not least the $107,963 Aleksejs “APonakov” Ponakovs reeled in when he triumphed in the $5,200 Titans Event.

Ponakovs was the last man standing once the dust settled, and he helped himself to a $107,963 score, leaving Silva to collect an $80,864 consolation prize. $5,200 Titans Event Final Table Results
