Six-Time WSOP bracelet winner Layne Flack rose to the top of the chip counts on Day 1 of the 2015 WSOP Event #13: $2,500 Omaha/Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better. The event drew 474 entries at the Rio Wednesday, creating a $1,185,000 prize pool that will pay 48 places. Along with a WSOP bracelet, the winner will earn $269,612 in prize money.

Two-hundred seventy-seven players survived the first day with Flack topping the counts and two-time WSOP Main Event Last Woman Standing Maria Ho closely in tow. Other big names like WSOP bracelet winners Scott Clements, Eli Elezra and Jeff Madsen also bagged relatively big.

Play will resume at 2 p.m. local time Thursday in an effort to whittle the field down to a final table.
