All 16 episodes will be televised following the conclusion of the tournament.

PokerGO will provide live streaming duties of the World Championship event starting on Day 1A (November 4) until the end on November 17, except Day 1B (November 5).

Away from the Main Event, there will be additional coverage of more than two dozen tournaments thru November 23, 2021. They include the $50,000 Poker Players Championship and the $250,000 Super High Roller.

Joel Orum brings the second-most chips to the tables today with 1,705,000 and Tommaso Briotti is right on his heels in third with 1,675,000. Jonas Wexler with 1,630,000 and William Blais with 1,630,000 round out the top five stacks as the only five players who will begin the day with more than 50 big blinds.

Some notable players who are still alive on Day 2 include, Koray Aldemir (1,380,000) with over $12 million in live tournament cashes and many more online, two-time WSOP bracelet winners James More, and Eric Baldwin (720,000), all-time WSOPC ring leader Maurice Hawkins (375,000) as well as Christian Harder (635,000) and 2019 millionaire maker champion John Gorsuch (240,000).

Day 2 is scheduled to play down to a winner, with 30-minute levels. The action restarts with the blinds at 15,000/30,000/30,000. With many stacks already on the very short end and even the big stacks not having a ton of wiggle room, play should come fast and furious all day as players will be hitting the rail at breakneck speed.

Stacks will shrink and grow as PokerNews will shepherd you through it all with timely updates of chip counts and big hands throughout the day.
