Online Poker -- Top Four Remain Unchanged in OPOY RaceTop 10 Gets Five New Players |
|
Though some points were won, the top four in the Online Player of the Year race stayed strong this week, holding their lead over the rest of the field.
Steve “gboro780” Gross and Casey “bigdogpckt5s” Jarzabek (pictured right) still lead the field by nearly 1,000 points, but are just 78 points apart from each other.
Thanks to the last few tournaments in the Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) XV, the rest of the top 10 was pretty much replaced altogether, with the exception of Ben “benba” Lamb, who fell from fifth to 10th place.
The newcomers to the top 10 include Taylor “ambiguosity” Paur (fifth), Philipp “Intervention” Agarwal (seventh), Lance “kingpin023” Harris (eighth) and FTOPS Main Event winner JackQKA (ninth).
Here is a look at the top 10.
