It's No-Limit Day!

Event 39 is a type of event that has become the bread and butter of the World Series of Poker in the last few years -- it's a $1,500 no-limit hold'em event. These events routinely draw the most runners, everyone hoping to punch their golden ticket to the final table, a huge payday, and maybe -- just maybe! -- a WSOP gold bracelet.

We can't guess how many players will show up today. It'll be in the thousands, a testament to poker's enduring popularity. They'll be let into the Amazon Room (and the Brasilia Room, and probably even the Miranda Room) in just a few minutes. Play is underway at noon. See you then!
