Welcome back to PokerNews, the official media partner of the 2024 World Series of Poker and home of live updates from all bracelet events.
Today sees the start of Event #48: $1,000 Pot-Limit Omaha here at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
This three-day event gets underway at 2 p.m. local time, with late registration open for nine levels. There will be 15-minute breaks every three levels, with a 60-minute dinner break at the end of Level 9 (~6:40 p.m.). Players are permitted two reentries.
The starting stack is 20,000 chips, with the plan for Day 1 to play 17 40-minute levels or down to 15 percent of the field, whichever is later. For the surviving players, Day 2 resumes at 12 p.m. Wednesday, where level duration increases to 60 minutes. A winner will be crowned on Day 3.
Last summer, Stephen Nahm conquered the massive field of 2,071 entries and scored a double knockout on the final hand to win his first bracelet and the $267,991 up top.
“Every poker player, obviously, comes here—you dream of this shit, right? I kinda made my dream come true a little bit; I’m not going to lie.” Nahm told PokerNews after his victory.
2023 WSOP Main Event champion Daniel Weinman is also a previous winner of this event, reigning supreme in 2022.
