Event #19: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller
Jour 4 a débuté
The 2022 World Series of Poker continues at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas as the final day of Event #19: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller will begin at 4 p.m. local time.
The five remaining players will battle it out on the felt for the coveted gold bracelet in addition to the $1,467,739 first-place prize. The tournament attracted 264 total entries to create a $6,237,000 prize pool, the majority of which will be awarded today.
Fabian Brandes (13,175,000) is coming into the final day as the chipleader. Like many German top pros, the high-stakes PLO cash player resides in Vienna, and although he doesn’t have an extensive tournament résumé, he will be in pole position to snag a maiden WSOP bracelet.
Josh Arieh (8,900,000) is the reigning 2021 WSOP Player of the Year and the head of PocketFives. He hopes five will be the number of the day, as five players return and he battles for his fifth bracelet. A top-two finish today would mean his second-highest WSOP cash, after his third-place finish for $2.5 million in the 2004 Main Event.
Tong Li (6,350,000) is coming into the day third in chips and, although not much is known about his poker career, he will have an opportunity to win the bracelet soon. He finished Day 1 with just over twice the starting stack, finished Day 2 with about six times the starting stack, and now has over forty times the starting stack and a shot at glory.
Sam Stein (5,875,000) is an accomplished player over the past decade, yet doesn’t have many live results in the last few years. In 2020, he talked about playing more online and spending time with family, and his return to live poker could possibly result in his biggest cash. If he ends up victorious, it will be his second WSOP bracelet after his first was won in a $3k PLO event in 2011.
Scott Ball (5,300,000) won the 2021 WSOP No-Limits VELO Player of the Year and has his eyes set on a third bracelet. His first two came last year in no-limit hold’em events, defeating a field of 604 in a $5k 6-handed event, followed by a victory over a field of 3,797 in the $1,111 Little One for One Drop. He enters the final day as the short stack but has plenty of room for a run.
