Welcome to Day 2 of Event #27: $1,500 Shootout No-Limit Hold'em

The 2022 World Series of Poker in its new home at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas will continue its one and only shootout event, Event #27: $1,500 Shootout No-Limit Hold'em, as Day 2 will kick off at noon local time.

Day 1 saw the field reach the maximum size of 1,000 entrants. By the end of the night, that field had been whittled down to just 100 players. Those who survived will return today and the field will be narrowed down to just 10 players by the end of Day 2. The 100 who made it to Day 2 will at least take home the minimum cash of $5,835, while those who survive and advance to Day 3's final table will be vying for the first place prize of $240,480 and a gold WSOP bracelet.

Notables who made it through to Day 2 include 2016 WSOP Main Event Champion Qui Nguyen, Women in Poker Hall of Fame Inductee JJ Liu, and four time WSOP bracelet winners Tom Schneider and Brian Yoon. Some notables who failed to bag their chips for Day 2 include 2013 WSOP Main Event Champion Ryan Riess, four time WSOP bracelet winners Scott Seiver and George Danzer, and last year's winner and runner up of this event, Gershon Distenfeld and Johan Schumacher.

All players will start the day with approximately 250,000 chips. Some stacks will be marginally smaller as some unsold stacks on day one were blinded into the well before the event sold out. Levels will last 40 minutes with a 15 minute break scheduled after every third level. A 60 minute dinner break is scheduled for after level 9, expected to be around 6:30 p.m. local time. Blinds will begin at 2,000-4,000 with a 4,000 big blind ante.
