It's Time for Another $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Tournament

Webjoker

We already had the $1,500 "Millionaire Maker", won by Benny Chen for $1,198,780, the $1,500 shorthanded, won by John Beauprez for $324,764 and the $1,500 Limit Hold'em won by Brent Wheeler $191,605. Another one is down to the last two tables but the World Series of Poker train stops for no one and we're firing up another $1,500 tournament today.

We'll be playing eleven levels today and we start at noon. Another big field is expected with a mix of amateurs giving it a go, and bracelet hunting professionals joining them. We'll be your source for updates through out the day. Our first focus will be to bring you the names of all the recognizable faces we see in the field. Later on we'll put effort in bringing you hand updates from all the interesting people playing in this event.

We're ready for another day of no-limit hold'em action. Are you?
