The final day of Event #35: $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha has arrived, as a total of 15 players are slated to return to the Horseshoe and Paris Casino Las Vegas to decide a new champion at the 2026 World Series of Poker.
The remaining players will be chasing the first-place prize of $441,560. A total of 2,581 entries accumulated a prize pool of $2,815,809.
Day 1b chip leader Will Givens (10,100,000) backed up his strong first day with a stellar performance on Day 2 to finish second in chips. Givens was a force to be reckoned with as he soared up to the top of the chip charts and stayed there for the majority of the day.
The Colorado native already has one WSOP bracelet to his name as he looks to add number two. Givens has amassed career earnings of nearly four million. He won his first bracelet in 2014 in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold’em. This would be his first bracelet in a different format, and the biggest single-event score of his career should he chase down the title.
Day 2 was Jason Zipfel’s day as he bagged 14,280,000 to finish the day. Zipfel came into the day second and chips, and he used it to his advantage to continue to stay above the crowd. Zipfel is in the hunt for his first WSOP bracelet. Zipfel has career earnings of nearly $250,000 according to The HendonMob, and will double his career earnings with a second-place or better finish.
