Pei Li Leads a Host of Stars on Day 1b of the $1,000 PLO Mystery Bounty
Day 1b of Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha is in the books. The second flight attracted 3,113 players to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, but only 467 of them made it through to Day 2.
China's Pei Li (1,175,000) came out on top on Day 1b. Li has one bracelet to his name, which he won in 2022 when he triumphed in the $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Bounty event. It seems like Li has a penchant for PLO bounty tournaments.
A whole host of stars joined Li in bagging up chips at the end of Day 1b. Pedro Rodriguez (982,000), Ludovic Geilich (918,000), and Rob Wazwaz (858,000) each finished in this flight's top ten.
