Join us at 5pm PDT on Sunday for the start of Event #30, $10,000 World Championship Limit Hold'em. Eight rounds of play are scheduled for the Sunday session, with the first thinning of the field commencing after a couple of rounds of play, once the players have a feel for others' strategies and a few big hand collisions occur.

The fixed-limit World Championship bracelet was won in 2007 by Saro Getzoyan, who outlasted a 257-player field to win $333,379. A similar field and first-place prize is expected this year.
