Field record sur l'Event #7 $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Record-breaking.
That has been the tone so far of the 2022 WSOP at Bally's and Paris Las Vegas and Event #7: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better did not disappoint. The field of 1,067 surpassed the old record of 1,036 from 2014. But by the end of Day 1 of the 3-day event, only 413 participants found a bag to continue their journey to Day 2.
A record-breaking field also meant a record-breaking prize pool, as the event generated $1,451,154, with 164 places paid at the end of the ride. Just a few of the star-studded field to advance to Day 2 with big stacks were Yehuda Buchalter (261,500), Carol Fuchs (166,500), Phil Hellmuth (100,500), and Shaun Deeb (73,000). Benny Glaser also barely escaped elimination but after he managed to climb his way up amongst the chip leaders to bag (158,000).
Glaser eliminated Ali Imsirovic on his way back to the upper regions of the chip counts. Glaser showed down with the nut-high in a three-way pot with Imsirovic at risk. The board ran out without a low and Imsirovic was sent packing while Glaser was climbing the ranks.
