The 2020 GGPoker WSOP Online Super Circuit Event #17: Main Event $5M Gtd is now complete, and German player "schimmelgodx" is the Main Event champion. They powered through almost 10,000 people across the Day 1 starting flights, and 1,494 who found a stack for Day 2, coming back from just three bigs three handed to grab not only the $1,271,218 first place prize, but also the coveted WSOP Circuit Main Event ring.
The Main Event was the 17th event in an 18 event series that spanned most of May.
