Of the 833 players who posted up the $1,500 entry into a new WSOP tournament in the Pot-Limit Omaha Bounty event, 125 will restart today at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino.
All those remaining in the field are also in the money and will begin at 2:00 P.M. local time and advance towards the coveted gold bracelet and the $141,161 prize up top.
Robert Oxenburg leads the remaining players with 210,300 in chips, however, Georgios Karavokyris is right on his heels with 207,000. Other notables in the fray today include Jeff Gross (28,600), Robert Mizrachi (23,600) and Benny Glaser (12,600).
In addition to the $1,421 min-cash secured to start the day, every contestant also has a hefty $500 bounty on their head.

On the schedule for today are ten 60-minute levels, with a 15-minute break every two levels. There will also be a 60-minute dinner break after Level 6 (8:30p.m.). This event is played in the Miranda room.
