Jon ‘PearlJammer’ Turner was once ranked as high as #3 in the world on PocketFives. He now spends a good chunk of his time in Las Vegas, playing live poker, but when the big online series run, Turner heads to Mexico to play. And with PokerStars World Championship of Online Poker underway, Turner is in action and after Thursday’s action, he’s now a 2017 WCOOP champion.

Turner topped the 208-player field in Event #13 (Six Max Pot Limit Omaha Eight-or-better) to win $35,991.08. The win came after the final three players made a deal.’BlackFortuna’ finished second and won $29,910.04, while ‘Zanos_Goda’ took home $30,308.74 for finishing third.

Despite all of his previous online tournament success – $7.86M in lifetime winnings, four Triple Crowns – this is the first COOP title for Turner. He’s had a number of close calls over the years including a third place finish in the 2009 Spring Championship of Online Poker Main Event that won him $527,100.

The biggest winner on Thursday was British grinder ‘Ahhh ls lt?’ who took home $68,721.63 for besting the 2,320-entry field in Event #14 High ($215 Bubble Rush No Limit Hold’em). Marcelo ‘bettoBR’ Betto finished runner-up and earned $48,592.40.

The last of the three WCOOP titles awarded on Thursday went to Nicolas ‘chilenocl’ Yunis of Chile. He won $47,520.00 for winning Event #12 High ($1,050 Six Max No Limit Hold’em Shootout).
