Who Will Win the Title in the 2021 WPT Online Series Event #24 WPT500?

The 2021 World Poker Tour Online Series is looking to crown another winner in one of the flagship events. Out of a field of 2,088 entries, only nine players remain to battle for the title in Event #24 WPT500. With a buy-in of $530, the tournament created a prize pool of $1,044,000 and partypoker Team Online’s Jaime Staples will aim to be the last man standing on his sponsoring site.

Staples will return with the shortest stack of just 61 million but is just one double up away from third place on the leaderboard. That one is topped by Sweden’s Simon Löfberg with a stack of almost 239 million, which represents 80 big blinds at blinds of 1.5M/3M.

Second in chips s Dutchman Teun Mulder with almost 190 million ahead of the UK’s David Afework (130.5 million). UK-based Spanish player Jon Ander Vallinas Santos has 37 big blinds at his disposal and sits in the middle of the pack. Several other players are in close proximity for the nine-handed final table.

All chip counts and big blinds of the finalists can be found below.

The final table recommences at 8.05 PM BST in real-time and will be streamed with cards-up coverage commentary on a 30-minute delay. You can follow the action on the partypoker Twitch stream and the WPT.com team will also provide hand updates until a winner has been determined.
