Welcome to Day 1 of Event 2: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em

The bracelet hunting begins
The bracelet hunting begins

This is it folks! The waiting is finally over! The very best poker players in the world all under one roof - the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. It is of course the World Series of Poker and in a little over 60-minutes we will be kicking off the first big field event, when cards are thrown everywhere in Event #2: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em.

Last year we had to wait until Event #18 before we had our first $1,500 NLHE event. That event drew in a starting field of 3,157 players and Foster Hays walked away with $735,400 and the coveted WSOP gold bracelet.

Let's hope that the Memorial Day hangovers are gone, because the WSOP bracelet hunt is well and truly on!

Action is planned to start at 12:00 noon and all the action will flow through your screens from Pokernews.
