The first champion emerged in the World Series of Poker Online<\/strong> on Sunday, held exclusively for players in Ontario, Canada<\/a>. The WSOP.com<\/a>\/GGPoker<\/a> platform in the newly regulated province saw Tristan Schneider<\/strong> claim his first bracelet as the platform\u2019s debut bracelet winner.<\/span><\/p>\n

Ontario launched a completely regulated online poker<\/a> market earlier this year. The new WSOP platform also recently went live in Ontario and quickly announced a series of three bracelet events.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Ontario action comes after summer bracelet events at the live series in Las Vegas as well as WSOP Online bracelet events on WSOP.com in the US and at GGPoker\u2019s international platform.<\/span><\/p>\n

Event 1: BIG 150 Ontario MILLION$<\/span><\/h2>\n

Schneider, also known by the username \u201cSchneids<\/strong>\u201d on the Ontario platform, topped a field of 1,310 entries in this $150 event to score $28,968<\/strong> (Canadian dollars).<\/span><\/p>\n

In heads-up play against \u201crexdale225,\u201d Schneider held a chip advantage of 7.4 million to 5.1 million when the final hand developed.<\/span><\/p>\n

That saw Schnieder dealt pocket deuces<\/strong> and both players saw a flop of K\u26602\u26665\u2665. That gave Scheids a set of 2s and he checked the action, receiving a check from his opponent as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

The turn brought the 9\u2663 and Schneider brought in a nice bet of 635,000. Rexdale called and the 5\u2660 came on the river, giving Schneider a full house.<\/span><\/p>\n

After betting 3.6 million, Rexdale moved the last of his 4 million chips in and his opponent quickly called. Rex tabled 8\u26655\u2663 for three of a kind.<\/span><\/p>\n

That didn\u2019t top Schneider\u2019s full house<\/strong>, however, and he collected the championship and his first bracelet. The win marked a bit of Ontario online poker history.<\/span><\/p>\n

More bracelet action on the way in Ontario<\/span><\/h2>\n

Schneider becomes the first bracelet winner on the new platform, but players have a bit more to look forward to. The final two events are set for Oct. 30 and starting flights are now underway.<\/span><\/p>\n

The remaining schedule includes a $1,050 championship event that caps the series and features the festival\u2019s highest buy-in. The event should offer some nice bragging rights for one lucky player winning the main event.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some Omaha action also awaits Ontario players. Here\u2019s a look at details of the final two events.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Event 2: $210 Omaholic Bounty MILLION$ \u2013 final stage, Oct. 30<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Event 3: $1,050 GGMasters Online Championship \u2013 final stage, Oct. 30<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \u00a0The bracelet events also come after WSOP Ontario wrapped Online Circuit events as well. Here’s a look at those winners.<\/span><\/p>\n
