After winning the $1,500 Big O gold bracelet here at World Series of Poker in 2024, Michael Christ made mention that the hardest part of the three-day tournament were the long hours.

It seems that the quest for glory wouldn't allow him a late start, as he was in his seat right at the start of the tournament. With two re-entries available to all players today, this might give him the best opportunity to defend the title. Only time will tell.
