Jour 4 a débuté
A first-time winner will be crowned today at the 2024 World Series of Poker at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas as all three remaining contenders in Event #43: $1,500 Mixed: Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better; Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better; Big O (7-Handed) tournament have no title under their belt yet. However, that will change today as the coveted WSOP gold bracelet is up for grabs with the biggest slice of the $1,138,755 prize pool still up for grabs. On yesterday's third tournament day, 22 players out of 853 entries returned but they couldn't get to a winner yet.
Sweden's Magnus Edengren will be the chip leader with 10,500,000 when the action resumes at 4 p.m. local time in the Horseshoe Event Center and he will be joined by James Juvancic (6,275,000) and Tim Seidensticker (5,010,000). The final casualty on Day 3 was none other than Phil Hellmuth, who was aiming to extend his lead over Phil Ivey but he had to settle for fourth place and $64,324.
All final three contenders have locked up their biggest WSOP cash as third place comes with a payday of at least $91,132. Juvancic already has three WSOP Circuit rings to his name and Seidensticker has one, but the two Americans are trailing Edengren in the chase for gold.
Three different Omaha variants will be played to determine a winner: Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better; Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better; and Big O. Whoever comes out on top of all the chips will earn their first gold bracelet and top prize of $196,970.

Life Outside Poker is a new podcast for PokerNews hosted by Connor Richards that seeks to pull back the curtain on poker players and allow viewers and listeners to get to know them on a personal level.
In the eighth episode, Connor speaks with legendary UFC ring announcer Bruce Buffer in an exclusive in-depth interview after Buffer's deep run in the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) $50,000 High Roller. Buffer, a longtime poker player, finished in eighth place for a career-best $212,423 after kicking off Day 3 with his trademark "it's time" introduction.
Buffer talked about finding his long-lost half-brother, Michael Buffer, and becoming his manager, the early days of the UFC, the similarities between poker and martial arts, his relationships with Joe Rogan and Dana White, playing poker with Tobey Maguire and Leonardo DiCaprio and the time he injured himself in a poker tournament before announcing the biggest UFC fight in history.
This interview was filmed at the 2024 WSOP inside Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
The Life Outside Poker podcast is available on major streaming platforms including Apple Podcasts, Spotify and iHeartRadio. You can also watch the interview with Bruce Buffer by heading to the PokerNews YouTube channel.

Slowrolling — it's a divisive topic in the poker world. Some players take great joy in taking part in the act, while for others, it's their biggest pet peeve when at the table.
There have been plenty of examples that have made headlines over the years, with Nik Airball's slowroll on Ethan 'Rampage' Yau on Hustler Casino Live being a recent case study.
And now, at the 2024 World Series of Poker, we may have seen the biggest slowroll of the summer so far.
