Niveau 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

The first day of Event #64: $1,500 Mixed No-Limit Hold'Em & Pot-Limit Omaha (Eight Handed) has come to an end. Ryan Laplante bagged an exceptionally large stack of 245,000 to end the night as the chip leader, as he looks for his second WSOP title.

Laplante's first WSOP win came last year in the $565 Pot-Limit Omaha for $190,328. Laplante has also had an impressive summer thus far in 2017 with a final table appearance in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold'Em Tag Team event and he also shipped the $600 No-Limit Hold'Em Ultimate Goliath Stack for over $31,000.

Chris Moorman is not far behind with 200,500 chips and he is also looking to add his second WSOP bracelet to his accomplishments. Moorman, an online poker professional, won his first bracelet earlier this year in the $3,000 No-Limit Hold'Em - 6 Handed event for nearly half a million dollars. Moorman has racked up over $5,000,000 in career earnings and is looking to add to that in a big way.

The day started out with around 400 entries but quickly grew to a total of 1,058 by the end of late registration. Bust-outs came quick and often throughout the day, including some busting on the very first hand. The money bubble burst in the last hand of the evening when Ethen Tosun and Tommy Chen both busted and will take home a share of the $2,252. In the end, the day finished with 158 players.

The total field made up a prizepool of $1,428,300 with 159 players making the money and a min-cash being worth $2,252. Those making it through to Day 2 will be looking forward to the first place prize of $268,555 and a WSOP gold bracelet.

Many notables took their shot in this one-of-a-kind event, however, those that were eliminated early include Joe Cada, Maurice Hawkins, Phil Laak, Niall Farrell, Allen Cunningham, David Williams, Maria Ho, Nacho Barbero, Joseph Cheong, Yevgeniy Timoshenko, Chris Ferguson, Ari Engel, and Kristen Bicknell.

Notables that were lucky enough to find a bag after Day 1 are defending champion Loren Klein, Tom Marchese, Jared Jaffee, Juha Helppi, Shannon Shorr, Carlos Mortensen, Matt Affleck, Esther Taylor, and Jeff Gross.

When the remaining 158 players return at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, they will all be guaranteed $2,252 and the eliminations can be expected to be just as fast as today.
