The most expensive gold bracelet event of the 2023 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) is one step closer to crowning a champion. Upon completion of 13 levels of 40 minutes each, a field of 29 entries in Event #12: €50,000 NLH Diamond High Roller is whittled down to 18 survivors at the King's Resort in Rozvadov. The €1 million guarantee has already been surpassed but it remains to be seen whether or not the 45 entries of the previous year can be reached.

Leading the way is the always jovial GGPoker ambassador Ren Lin with 3,370,000 and fellow countryman Quan Zhou follows in second place with 2,755,000, fewer than one big blind ahead of Santhosh Suvarna (2,725,000). Several other high-stakes regulars can be found in the overnight top ten including defending champion Orpen Kisacikoglu, who was among those needing to re-enter and advancing with 1,465,000.

Day 1 Top Ten Chip Counts

Rank	Player	Country	Chip Count	Big Blinds
1	Ren Lin	China	3,370,000	84
2	Quan Zhou	China	2,755,000	69
3	Santhosh Suvarna	India	2,725,000	68
4	Daniel Dvoress	Canada	2,690,000	67
5	Martin Kabrhel	Czechia	2,090,000	52
6	Adrian Mateos	Spain	2,085,000	52
7	Hyunsup Kim	South Korea	1,755,000	44
8	Felipe Ketzer	Brazil	1,610,000	40
9	Orpen Kisacikoglu	Turkey	1,465,000	37
10	Nacho Barbero	Argentina	1,235,000	31

Among the big stacks after Day 1 is also Daniel Dvoress, who won his second gold bracelet just two days ago in Event #8: €25,000 NLH GGMillion€ after overcoming a stacked field of High Roller regulars. It would be no surprise to see the Canadian go all the way again and he sits in fourth place on the leaderboard with 2,690,000.

Martin Kabrhel made a late appearance in the final level of the night and came prepared with a re-entry ticket readily available. Lin had just doubled through Chris Brewer and then knocked out Kabrhel shortly thereafter, only for the Czech two-time WSOP bracelet winner to re-enter right away and double near instantly.

Stephen Chidwick and Timothy Adams were not as fortunate and bowed out late in the day, but both are expected to take advantage of the extended late registration and re-entry period.

The final day of the high stakes contest is set to recommence at 2 p.m. local time and the blinds will then be 20,000-40,000 with a big blind ante of 40,000. All those jumping in will begin their journey with 1,000,000 in chips, good enough for 25 big blinds. The late registration is open for the first level, and the level duration for the remainder of the tournament stays 40 minutes each.

Besides the exclusive live updates right here on PokerNews, the conclusion of Event #12: €50,000 NLH Diamond High Roller will also be broadcasted on the King's Resort Twitch and YouTube channel with cards-up coverage on a 60-minute security delay.
