After a record-setting field of 1,555 entrants took their shot at the 2024 World Series of Poker Event #27: $1,500 Big O, the last 20 players standing are back to battle it out. The bright lights of the feature tables await when play resumes today at 1 p.m. local time at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
Leading the way after Day 2 is Tomoki Matsuda, who bagged up 4,285,000 chips and will return to action with 71 big blinds. John Bunch (4,005,000) held the chip lead through much of the second day, but settled for second place on the leaderboard after 25 levels of play. Michael Christ (3,335,000) rounds out the top three contenders, with action expected to be fast and furious to begin the final day.

Among the notable names still in contention is three-time WSOP bracelet winner Sam Farha, who was the Day 1 chip leader and saw his stack fall and rise multiple times on Monday. Farha returns with 24 big blinds, good for tenth spot as he chases another piece of WSOP hardware.
Right ahead of Farha is Damjan Radanov, who bagged 1,875,000 chips and sits ninth overall. Two-time bracelet winner Nathan Gamble (455,000) is one of the short stacks to begin Day 3.
All remaining players have locked up at least $12,828, but the final 20 will have their eyes on the first-place prize of $306,884.

James McWhorter opened to 180,000 from under the gun and was called by Zeph Pages in the big blind.
The dealer fanned out the J♣Q♦2♠ flop, where Pages checked. McWhorter continued for 180,000 and the call was made.
The 5♥ turn brought another check from Pages before McWhorter announced pot, enough to put Pages all in. After some consideration, Pages made the fold.
