Will We See Another Record?

It is the third year in a row that the Seniors Event of the World Series Of Poker has generated more than 4,000 entries as we are up to 4,233 already. Late registration remains open until the end of Level 6 and that should include the dinner break as well around 6 p.m. Vegas time. We are already only 274 players short of the 4,407 entries from last year, meaning a new record is well within reach.
