Day 3 of the Millionaire Maker is on Deck
In just one short hour, Day 3 of Event #20: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em MILLIONAIRE MAKER at the 2017 World Series of Poker will begin. From a huge 7,761-entry field, just 136 players remain with a chance to win the title.
Leading the pack to start today is Senovio Ramirez III with an impressive mountain of chips worth 1,570,000. He won two big pots yesterday and used his stack to his advantage to hold onto his lead to finish the night strong. Just behind him is Lucas Blanco with 1,339,000, with Daniel Lee rounding out the top three stacks with 1,196,000 chips.
The tournament's prize pool of $10,477,350 is being divided among the top 1,165 finishers, with a staggering $1,221,407 for first. The remaining players are currently guaranteed a payout of $8,054, although the first-place prize and elusive WSOP gold bracelet are at the front of everyone's minds.
Blinds start today at 6,000/12,000 with a 2,000 ante and players will battle it out for 10 one-hour levels. There will be a 15-minute break every two levels, with a scheduled 60-minute dinner break after the sixth level of the day.
