It might only be the first week, but Lex "L. Veldhuis" has won his first WCOOP title. The battleground was WCOOP 09-H: $5,200 NLHE [Bounty Builder Super High Roller], where the 89 entries went on to make a $445,000 prize pool, smashing the $350,000 guarantee.

The top 11 players made the money, with WCOOP League picks Jerry "perrymejsen" Odeen (tenth) and Yuri "theNERDguy" Dzivielevski (eighth) finishing in the paid places.

Jerry "Perrymejsen" Odeen Takes Down WCOOP 13-H: $320 NLHE [8-Max]

Jerry "Perrymejsen" Odeen was always going to be a factor in this year's WCOOP League. With 14 COOP titles coming into WCOOP — including three won during SCOOP this year — he finished sixth on the SCOOP Overall Leaderboard and was the second pick by Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot for his WCOOP League team.

Odeen has now won his seventh WCOOP title after winning WCOOP 13-H: $320 NLHE [8-Max] for $28,165.

He defeated a final table that include Alexandre "Cavalito" Mantovani, Juanki "B4NKR0LL3R" Vecino and fellow Swede — and fellow member of Team tonkaaaa — Niklas "Lena900" Astedt.

Although the result isn't enough to put Team tonkaaaa into the podium positions, it's a strong sign that the Swedes are going to be a force to contend with.

"go4gunners" had an incredible Monday night, picking up their second WCOOP title in Event #2-H $530 WCOOP Kickoff for $40,400.

Meanwhile, there was a second WCOOP title for "danieldl7", who won the largest prize of the night, taking home $116,811 in Event #4-M $215 Sunday Million.

There were also second WCOOP titles for Dennys "dennysramos2" Ramos and Blaz "Skarmak3r" Zerjav, while Christopher "lissi stinkt" Frank picked up his third in Event #5-H - $1,050 PLO.
