Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
Event #19: $1,500 Millionaire Maker is set to kick off today at 10 am. With this being the eighth live edition of the WSOP millionaire maker, it has become a staple of the World Series of Poker since its inception in 2013 and is the only tournament of the series with a guaranteed $1,000,000 to first place.
The previous years have seen field sizes that rival the main event, and with Event #4: The Reunion hitting its guarantee with over 12,000 entrants, this year’s Millionaire Maker is sure to be a big field.
Previous winners include Adrian Buckley, Pablo Mariz, and Jason Dewitt. In 2019, it was John Gorsuch that beat Kazuki Ikeuchi heads up for a first place prize of $1,344,930, besting the biggest field seen yet at 8,809.
The players start with 25,000 in chips with levels starting at 100-100 and a 100 big blind ante. Levels will last 60 minutes long with scheduled 20-minute breaks after every two levels and a 75-minute dinner break after level 8. Late registration will remain open until the end of level 8 and day 1a will end after level 11.
Players are permitted one re-entry per flight, so the players who do not make day 2 at the end of 1a can re-enter Day 1a, and will also have an opportunity to re-enter on day 1b on Saturday, October 9th.
