There are still 89 players in the running for a coveted gold bracelet as they head into Day 2 of Event#7: €1,650 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Max at the 2024 World Series of Poker Europe, held atKing’s Resort in Rozvadov.
This year’s event saw 351 entries, down from last year’s 495, but the prize pool is still impressive at €494,910—well above the guaranteed €300,000. 53 players will eventually make the money, with a minimum payout of €3,005. But, naturally, what everyone’s really aiming for is the top prize of €111,250. The top three finishers will also receive a ticket for the WSOPE Main Event.
Leading the pack at the close of Day 1 is 2023 WSOP Europe €550 NLH Colossus bracelet winner Ermanno Di Nicola, who bagged an impressive 508,500 chips. He holds a solid lead, with almost a 10-big-blind advantage over Vladimir Troyanovskiy, who finished with 476,500 chips. Both players are far ahead of the rest of the field, including two-time bracelet winner Wing Po Liu (366,500), Ankit Ahuja (363,500), and John Armbrust (359,000).
There are also twelve WSOP bracelet winners still in the field including Timur Margolin (288,000), Ran Koller (255,500), Lukas Pazma (223,000), Gabi Livshitz (200,000), Anson Tsang (170,000), Or Nezer (166,000), Fabio Peluso (158,500), Shaun Deeb (152,000), last year's champion Tobias Peters (133,500), and Ilija Savevski (91,000).

Sam Dryden opened from the hijack to 5,000. Action folded around to Ioannis Temekonidis who defended the big blind.
He check-called a bet of 5,000 on the 6♠10♠5♥ flop before both players checked the 9♥ turn. Temekonidis then led for 3,500 on the 2♦ river. Dryden called and was shown 9♦7♠ for top pair and Dryden mucked.

Action was picked up on the river of A♠3♣9♥9♠K♠ where Sami Bechahed bet 29,000. Bleron Maliqi then reraised all in for 53,000.
Bechahed went through some of the possible combinations his opponents could have, adding that this spot is "never a bluff." He took a little longer before folding, and as he did, he showed the 9♦ and Maliqi took the pot.

With 11,000 already in the pot and the flop showing 8♥J♥10♠, Thomas Eychenne check-called Adrian Ziemichod’s 2,500 bet.
When the 4♣ hit the turn, Eychenne repeated the same move, check-calling an increased bet of 8,000 from Ziemichod.
As the A♠ landed on the river, Eychenne checked again, only for Ziemichod to shove all in, putting Eychenne at risk. Eychenne went into the tank, visibly frustrated with his situation. After a long pause, he made the reluctant call, almost sliding his chips toward Ziemichod in defeat. His instincts were spot on—Ziemichod revealed Q♥9♥ for a flopped straight, while Eychenne could only muster two pair with A♦10♣.
