Since his first WCOOP title in 2018, Benny “RunGodlike” Glaser has gone on to rule the roost when it comes to the World Championship of Online Poker on PokerStars.
A title every year bar one (2024) has followed, including seven titles in 2023 alone. And that now includes 2026 after he won WCOOP 44-H: $1,050 8-Game, the first WCOOP title he’s ever won in the format.
On Instagram, Glaser celebrated his first final table of the series and went on to describe his 29th overall COOP title victory as a “battle.”
“Really nice for some morale for the rest of the series,” he added.

Benny Glaser’s 17 WCOOP Titles
From a humble $55 PLO event in 2018, to the World Championship of 2-7 Triple Draw in 2023, Glaser’s WCOOP titles have run the gamut in terms of buy-ins and payouts.
His largest single WCOOP title payout came in 2023, when he won $55,706 for topping the 1,175-player $320 NLHE 6-Max Freezeout. However, he’s won five other events with larger fields.
Last night’s win in the $1,050 8-Game was his tenth WCOOP-H title, compared with two WCOOP-L and five WCOOP-M titles.
