Jour 1 a débuté
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 #58: $50,000 Poker Players Championship here at Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas.
Since its debut in 2006 when the legendary Chip Reese won the inaugural edition, the PPC has grown in magnitude and prestige while perfecting its format along the way, starting back then as a five-game H.O.R.S.E tournament with a no-limit hold ‘em final table to its evolution today into a full nine-game event.
| PPC Game Rotation | ||
|---|---|---|
| No-Limit Hold 'em | Razz | No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw |
| Seven Card Stud | Pot-Limit Omaha | Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better |
| Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better | Limit Hold 'em | 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw |
Five days of mixed-game poker begins at 2 p.m. local time. Six 100-minute levels is the plan on Days 1-3, playing down to a final table on Day 4, with a champion crowned on Day 5. The starting stack is 300,000 chips and reentry is not permitted in this event.
Out of a field of 99 entries in last year's edition, American poker pro Brian Rast capped off a dominant Day 5 performance to claim his third Poker Players Championship and sixth career WSOP bracelet. A few days later, he was inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame, an accolade many thought was long overdue.
