Event #59: $2,500 Double Stack NLHE Starts at 6 PM UTC
At 6 p.m. UTC, it will be time for another event on the GGPoker WSOP Online Events schedule with Event #59: $2,500 Double Stack NLHE kicking off the race to another WSOP bracelet. With familiar names like Daniel Dvoress, Kristen Bicknell, Paul Teoh, Yuri Dzivielevski, Roberto Romanello, and Juha Helppi already claiming a bracelet over the past weeks, many more well-known players will be back today to try and win one too.
Alek Stasiak has won two already during this year's series and thus became the first-ever player to win two online bracelets in history. Will he be back to make it three? Some of the GGnetwork representatives like Pete Chen, Thai Ha, Daniel Negreanu, Dan Almeida, and Henri Buehler will be playing too to see if they can take it down.
But there are many other notable players who have registered before the start of the day: Antoine Saout, Shawn Buchanan, Dominik Nitsche, Martin Zamani, Manig Loeser, and Ranno Sootla for example.
When the players jump into the tournament, they will get 50,000 chips in their starting stack and play 15-minute levels until the final table. The blinds will then go up after a certain amount of hands have been played. Late registration is possible for the first three hours and 30 minutes with players having the possibility to reenter twice during that period. A 6-minute break will take place every hour at 55 minutes past the hour.
At the end of the day, the winner will walk away with the lion share of the prize pool, a shiny bracelet, and a WSOP Europe package. And PokerNews will be there from the start until a new champion has been found, so make sure to follow along with the action right here.
