Day 1 on the Horizon
Day 1 of Event 48: $3,000 Limit Hold'em will begin in less than 20 minutes, and the plan is to play eight sixty-minute levels with a break after every two. The defending champion in this event is Tyler Bonkowski, who defeated Brandon Demes heads up for $220,817 and the bracelet. Bonkowski went on to make a deep Main Event run later in the summer, finishing 60th, which earned him $130,997.
Despite the fact that the illustrious $50,000 Poker Players Championship is going on across the Amazon Room in the Blue Section, we still expect to see a handful of notables over here in the Tan Sections. 2012 WSOP bracelet winner Ronnie Bardah plans on playing, and so does 2004 WSOP Player of the Year Daniel Negreanu.
The cards will be in the air shortly, and we'll be here to provide all of your up-to-the-minute updates.
