Welcome to the 2015 World Series of Poker!

It's another big no-limit hold'em event on the schedule today for the WSOP, with the second starting flight of Event #16: $1,500 "Millionaire Maker" No-Limit Hold'em at a nice-and-early 10 a.m. With $1 million guaranteed to the winner, this event is set to attract plenty of dreamers, top pros, and everything in between.

The defending champion is Jonathan Dimmig, who topped a field of 7,977 entries to win more than $1.3 million last year. Dimmig played Day 1a and bagged up 75,800 in chips. In 2013, the first year this event was held, Benny Chen topped 6,343 entries to score just shy of $1.2 million.

Players in the field will begin with 7,500 in chips, and this is the last of the two starting flights. Those eliminated on Day 1a have the option to reenter on Day 1b.
