Winner to Be Crowned On Extra Day of the $1,500 Omaha 8 Mix
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.
