Jour 1 a débuté
Following the dealer’s choice event earlier at the 2023 World Series of Poker, mixed game specialists are set to test their versatility once again in Event #27: $1,500 Eight Game Mix. The first of three days of action will see both limit and big bet games take center stage at Horsehoe and Paris Las Vegas.
The exciting rotation of games includes No-Limit Hold’em, Seven Card Stud, Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better, Razz, Pot-Limit Omaha, Limit Hold’em, Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better and 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw. The action is six-handed and games will change after every orbit of the table.
This marks the eighth edition of the event on the WSOP schedule, becoming a yearly staple since 2016. The inaugural champion was Phil Ivey in 2014, while Menikos Panagiotou took home the bracelet and $180,783 last year after outlasting a record field of 695 entries.

Three players, including Barny Boatman in the cutoff, button Nathan Szoke, and an opponent in the big blind, each put in bets on the 3♠J♥6♣ flop before the J♦ fell on the turn.
Action checked to Szoke and he fired out a bet. Only the big blind called as Boatman got out of the way. The river came the K♠ and the big blind checked again.
Szoke now bet again and his opponent looked back at his cards before mucking.
