Day 1a Awaits
Welcome to Day 1a of Event #54, the last of the $1,000 buy-in no-limit hold'em events on this summer's WSOP schedule.
Last night saw the exciting conclusion to the most recent $1K NLHE event (Event #47), with the winner, Shawn Busse, turning his $1,000 investment into a cool $485,791. Not a bad ROI, there!
The prize pool for this event could be even larger, as most are speculating this last shot at a lower buy-in event might attract more runners than we've seen thus far in the $1K events. We'll find out tomorrow (Day 1b) whether or not that turns out to be the case.
Meanwhile, come back at noon local time for the start of Day 1a of Event #54 where thousands will be trying to turn a grand into something really grand.
