A mix of seven poker variants occupies the players’ hearts and minds in Event #76: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet. A total of 458 entrants came out to play those seven variants, generating a prize pool worth $1,019,050, but as the day ended, only 101 survived. Those survivors return today at 1 p.m. to the Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas, with only 69 of them making the money. Only one of them will receive the WSOP bracelet and the $206,982 first-place prize.
