Jour 1a terminé
La première des trois journées d'ouverture du WSOP Little One for One Drop s'est déroulée dans la salle Miranda en marge du Jour 2AB du Main Event dans la nuit de mardi à mercredi. 687 joueurs ont déboursé au moins 1000$ (un bonus de 5000 jetons contre 111$ reversés intégralement à la fondation One Drop est possible, ndlr) et 117 participants ont emballés des jetons après 10 niveaux de jeu. Aucun tricolore n'a pour l'instant validé son ticket pour le Jour 2.
C'est l'Américain Ken 'Teach' Aldridge qui a connu le meilleur départ en terminant avec 199 000 jetons. Il est suivi par ses compatriotes Lawrence Engerman (183,400) et Mark Jun (181,200).
Le Tchèque Pavel Plesuv (105 000) et le Belge Terry Shumacher (102 000) ont bien débuté eux aussi alors que le récent vainqueur WSOP Tom Koral (22,200) mais aussi Adam Owen (92,800), Joe Elpayaa (75,600), Ray Henson (58,500) et Brian Hastings (16,800) sont passés.
Jason Mercier (91,000), David 'ODB' Baker (59,300), Thomas Taylor (57,100) et Mike Leah (14,300) ont aussi emballé un stack alors qu'ils sont qualifiés pour le Jour 2C du Main Event. S'ils se qualifient pour le Jour 3 sur le tournoi principal, ils devront multitabler dans la nuit de vendredi à samedi !
En revanche, Martin Jacobson, Dan Heimiller, Chris Ferguson, Celina Lin, Shannon Shorr, Sorel Mizzi, Samantha Cohen ou encore l'acteur james Woods devront passer par la case re-entry au Jour 1B ou au Jour 1C pour tenter de succéder au Suédois Michael Tureniec, vainqueur 2016 devant plus de 4000 joueurs et Guillaume Diaz (9e) pour un peu plus d'un demi million de dollars.
Rendez-vous à minuit sur PokerNews pour suivre le Jour 1B en direct.
