Tobias Schwecht Takes Down GGOC Main Event For $727K

The $150 million guaranteed GG Online Championship crowned its Main Event champion on May 30 and Tobias Schwecht was that player. Schwecht came out on top of a 6,107-strong field and walked away with $727,640 of the monster-sized $8,702,475 prize pool after a four-way deal at the final table.

Schwecht came agonisingly close to winning an online WSOP bracelet in 2020 when he finished in second place behind Orhan "yirtil" Ates in the $525 Bounty No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed event. We are sure reeling in a $727,640 score in this tournament will go some way to making amends for that defeat.
