Defending champion Bradley Anderson entered the day with intentions of making a run at defending his title but ultimately fell short of that goal by busting before bagging on Day 1. Other notables to bust on Day 1 were Daniel Negreanu, Veronica Brill, Anthony Zinno, Chance Kornuth and Nick Schulman.

Notable players to bag a stack and looking to take Anderson's place as reigning champion of this event include James Woods (212,000), newly minted bracelet winner Jerry Wong (210,000), and multiple-time bracelet winners Men Nguyen (149,000), Shaun Deeb (147,000), Ben Lamb (146,000), Mel Judah (130,500), Mike Matusow (116,000) and Sam Farha (51,500).

The number of crushers and bracelets left in the field will ensure that winning this bracelet will be no easy task. Mixed game variants always bring out top competition and with this event being no different, the eventual winner will certainly have a victory that they can be proud of.

Play will resume Tuesday, June 20th, at 1:00 p.m. local time with ten 60-minute levels of play scheduled to take place.

Three Omaha Variants Combine Into One Action-Packed Event When $1,500 Mixed Omaha Hi-Lo Begins at 2 p.m.

Another player will get to add their name to an already illustrious history with Event #45: $1,500 Mixed Omaha beginning at 2 p.m. local time at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas as part of the 2023 World Series of Poker. This event combines three variants of Omaha Hi-Lo: Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better, Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better, and Big O, another variation of Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo but with five cards.

Busting the World Series of Poker Main Event is usually the worst day of the year for a poker player. But for Bradley Anderson, it proved to be a blessing in disguise.

Anderson didn’t plan to play the $1,500 Mixed Omaha Hi-Lo event at last year’s WSOP until an early elimination from the Main Event. He then jumped into the field and, three days later, beat out 771 players to earn $195,565 and his first career bracelet. “If you offered to me to bust the main and win a side event, I for sure would have taken that,” the Missoula, Montana native said following his win, which came eight years after a crushing near-miss in the 2014 Millionaire Maker when he went from commanding chip leader to out in fifth place in the blink of an eye.

The history of this event is riddled with star performances from some of poker’s biggest names. In 2021, Dylan Linde won his long-awaited bracelet after nearly 90 previous cashes. Anatolii Zyrin, the man of (literally) many hats, denied Yueqi Zhu a repeat performance in 2019 after Zhu won the title in 2018. Scott Abrams was runner-up to Anderson, a year after finishing in third place in this event.

Players rotate between the games every seven hands. They’ll begin the tournament with a 25,000 starting stack and play 15 40-minute levels on Day 1, with a 15-minute break every three levels. Late registration is open through the end of Level 9, which should come around 8:45 p.m. Players are allowed a maximum of two reentries during the registration period.

To be the last one standing, a player has to prove their mastery of all three variants. It will be a hard journey over the next three days, and PokerNews will be following along the entire way providing live updates.
