Event 4: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em - Day 1a

MarcC

This is where the 2009 WSOP starts for most people. You only get dealt two cards, you don't have to be a casino employee and you certainly don't have to pay $40,000 to play.

It's a new event on the schedule this year with a reduced buy in of $1,000. Harrah's realizes times are financially tough for a lot people right now, so this event is seen as a way to keep as many people involved in this year's series as possible.

A lot of people want to be involved too as the daily cap of 3,000 for Day 1a has already been reached. Join us back here at 12pm local time to follow the action.
