Welcome to Event #16: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo
Turbo aficionados, start your engines! Event #16: $500 No-Limit Hold'em Turbo is set to kick off at 3 p.m. PDT and will set one player on the fast track to earning a WSOP gold bracelet.
Players will start with 30,000 in tournament chips for their $500 buy-in, and blind levels are 8 minutes in length. Late registration is open for two hours and fifty-five minutes, and players who bust may re-enter twice during the late registration period. Re-entries have a thirty-second time limit, so players should make sure they have enough funds in their WSOP.com account prior to the tournament start. Tournament tickets may not be used for re-entry.
This is a single day event meaning the entire tournament will be played out online and the winner will take home a WSOP Gold Bracelet.
Last night, in Event #15: $1,000 PLO 8-Max, Guy "PhilLaak" Dunlap of Portland, Oregon earned his first WSOP gold bracelet and $133,780 after overcoming a tough final table that included heavy hitters Anthony "heheh" Zinno, Matt "jacksup" Matros, and Blake "shampainpopn" Whittington. Dunlap beat Shane "danish01" Daniels to earn his bracelet, and Daniels was left with his second runner-up performance of the series, after finishing second in Event #6: $600 PLO8 6-Max.
Plenty of players are already registered for today's festivities, including Chad "clayne' Layne, Benjamin "End3rs" Moon, and Tony "Panoramic" Dunst, to name a few.
