Double Victory for John O’Shea in ECOOPJohn O’Shea “Doesalrite” in ECOOP; Takes Down Two Events in One Week |
|
John “doesalrite” O’Shea has done it again. In just one week, the Boylepoker.com pro successfully defended his title in the European Championship of Online Poker (ECOOP) Omaha hi-lo event, and then went on to take down the $400 + $30 buy-in ECOOP pot-limit Omaha event. His winnings of $25,000 and $40,500 respectively come just before he hits Las Vegas for the World Series of Poker.
O’Shea said, “What a week! To successfully defend my hi-lo title was something I never really thought could happen, it’s such a long shot. But to do that and kick on and win a second ECOOP event is just staggering. I’m really happy to be hitting such a fine seam of form ahead of the World Series.”
His $65,500 run of luck was shared with four Boylepoker.com players who together won a 15 percent scoop of his future ECOOP earnings before the series had even kicked off.
In celebration of O’Shea’s incredible double act, Boylepoker.com is offering a $10 + $1 no-limit hold’em bounty tournament on Thurs., Jun. 11 at 8 p.m. (BST), and the player who takes O’Shea out gets a $530 token to the WSOP mega satellite, which is taking place at the site on Jun. 14.
To make things even more interesting, the top three finishers in the event will win five percent, three percent, and two percent, according to where they place, of whatever O’Shea may take home from event 27 of the WSOP.
Tonight on The Poker Show, O’Shea will be talking to Padraig Parkinson and Jesse May all about his amazing week. Fans of the show can listen live between 8 p.m. and 11 p.m..
