Jour 1b 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 Day 1b of Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha here at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. This is a brand new event for the WSOP and $300 from each buy-in will go towards the bounty pool. Bounties will begin on Day 2. Players will draw a random bounty prize for every player they eliminate.
This is a two-day event, which features two Day 1 flights. Day 1b gets underway at 10 a.m. local time, with late registration open for 12 levels. This event allows for two reentries per flight. There will be 20-minute breaks every three levels, with a 60-minute dinner break at the end of Level 12 (~7:00 p.m.).
The starting stack is 40,000 chips, with the plan for Day 1 to play 17 40-minute levels. For the surviving players, Day 2 resumes at 11 a.m. on Thursday, July 11 and plays down to a winner. Traditional PokerNews coverage will begin on Day 2.
Yesterday, 1,701 entrants bought into Day 1a, showing the popularity of mystery bounty tournaments. By the night's end, only 193 players had chips requiring bagging.
Gene Grieshaber finished with 1,211,000 chips in his stack, enough for an early chip lead. Five other players bagged up seven-figure stacks, including Japanese star Daisuke Ogita (1,205,000) and Sweden's Ramzi Jelassi (1,171,000).

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 11th episode, Connor speaks with Dan "Jungleman" Cates about accountability in poker, his notorious heads-up challenge with Tom Dwan, Game of Gold, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, mindfulness in poker and his new podcast Winning the Game of Life.
Cates also talked about his iconic Poker Players Championship outfits and a six-figure downswing he experienced at Bellagio during the summer.
This interview was filmed at the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) inside Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
In 2003, the game of poker changed forever after Chris Moneymaker topped a field of 839 players to win the World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event for $2.5 million. By doing so, the Moneymaker effect ignited the “Poker Boom,” which saw the tournament field triple the following year.
The 2004 Main Event was the last to be held at the birthplace of the WSOP – Binion’s Horseshoe in downtown Las Vegas. The venue was packed to the rafters with 2,576 players entering that year’s tournament, and with the ESPN cameras capturing all the action several poker players made a name for themselves that year including young guns David Williams and Josh Arieh, while 1995 WSOP Main Event champ Dan Harrington made history by following up his third-place finish in the 2003 WSOP Main Event by placing fourth in 2004 for $1.5 million.
However, when the dust settled it was a patent attorney from Connecticut by the name of Greg Raymer winning the whole thing for a smooth $5 million and a gold bracelet. While attempting to defend his title in 2005, which doubled from the year prior by attracting 5,619 players, Raymer proved his win was no fluke by making another deep run, ultimately falling in 25th place for $304,680.
It’s been 20 years since Raymer’s victory, but he hasn’t slowed down as he’s continued to play poker all across the globe. In recognition of Raymer’s anniversary, PokerNews caught up with the champ, who will be at the 2024 WSOP!
At the 2023 World Series of Poker, poker player Cody Daniels inspired the poker community with his strength and determination when taking on Poker's World Championship while battling a terminal illness.
This summer, the Lake Havasu City native returned to the WSOP, first playing Event #70: $400 Colossus before hopping into the record-breaking 2024 WSOP Main Event. Daniels managed to navigate the bubble, which burst earlier in the afternoon, and currently sits with a stack of 300,000 (25 big blinds) at the halfway point of Day 4.
In the midst of his pursuit of the WSOP Main Event bracelet and the $10 million first-place prize, PokerNews caught up with the 29-year-old. Daniels shared his experiences, emotions, and the extraordinary support he's received throughout his journey.
