Day 4 of Event #53: $1,500 Millionaire Maker saw 44 players start the day and only seven hopefuls make it to the fifth and final day. Action will resume on Wednesday, June 25 at 4 p.m. local time and although the seven remaining players have locked up $245,430, they will all be looking to win the WSOP bracelet and the $1,255,180 first-place prize that awaits one of them.
Leading the charge is Josh Reichard, who already owns 16 WSOP Circuit rings but is still chasing his first gold bracelet. He’s in a strong position with 84,300,000 chips. Right behind him is Jesse Yaginuma, a three-time WSOP Online bracelet winner, who will be a serious contender after bagging 55,700,000 chips. Rounding out the top three is Jonah Labranche, who finished third in the 2023 $1,000 Tag Team event, and brings 35,100,000 into the final day.

Bruno Fuentes was the only elimination following the dinner break, falling when his pocket sevens couldn’t hold up against Alejandro Ganivet’s ace-ten. He earned $191,690 for his deep run
