Day 1 of Event #24: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo Championship was quite the meeting of the minds at the 2024 World Series of Poker hosted by Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. The total number of entries stands at 224 but new players have the option to enter through the first two levels of Day 2, so we can expect the field to swell.

Day 1 saw ten 60-minute levels whittle the 224 entrants down to nearly half of that.

Like most of the $10,000 Championships here at the Series, there were plenty of notable bracelet winners and Omaha specialists in the field. Some hefty-stacked competitors who made Day 2 include Sean Winter (378,000) who bagged massive.

Yuri Dzivielevski (304,500) was also well in control the entirety of the day and Jesse Lonis (248,500) remains in contention for his third bracelet. Ken Aldridge (238,000) sat down right at the start of the day and steadily maintained before finding a nice uptick at the end of the night.

Ben Lamb (152,00) and Loni Hui (155,000) had a fun day sitting next to each other, finding quite a few laughs along the way.

David Williams (53,500) and Mike Matusow (20,500) will return to Day 2 with a short stack but with room to spin.

Plenty of notables took their shot at Day 1 but were felled along the way, including Robert Mizrachi and Eli Elezra, who are in a race to their sixth bracelet. Daniel Negreanu registered late but was unable to gain any traction either. Author of the Scoop Series, Greg Vail, was also in the field but was unable to get above starting stack.

Play will resume June 8 at 1:00 p.m. local time at Horseshoe Event Center Silver. Players will be returning to blinds of 1,500/3,000.

Leonard Finds the Right Call

Level 10 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

With three players seeing a board of J43, Patrick Leonard checked from the small blind, a player in the big blind checked and a player who was in position bet 5,000. Both Leonard and the big blind made the call.

All three players checked the 4 turn leading to the Q river. Leonard checked, the big blind bet 6,000, the other player folded and Leonard made the call.

The big blind tabled A1075 for a flush but Leonard turned over 8664 for a bigger flush to take the pot.
