The 2022 World Series of Poker in its new home at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas is on the home stretch and almost all elusive gold bracelets have already been awarded. However, one new tournament on the schedule remains and that's Event #89 Tournament of Champions.
It is a new addition to the schedule and requires no buy-in while offering a guaranteed prize pool of $1,000,000, replacing the invitation-only Global Casino Championship. The exclusive tournament awards no points towards the 2022 Player of the Year race due to the same restrictive nature and is open to winners of ring events from the 2021/2022 WSOP Circuit season as well as bracelet winners from the 2022 WSOP.
This not only includes the events at the new location on the Strip in Las Vegas but also the various competitions held online on the WSOP.com and GGPoker platforms. In total, nearly 600 players have qualified for this $1 Million Freeroll and the vast majority of them are expected to join the action. The list of eligible players can be found on the WSOP website.
Day 1 is set to get underway at 11 a.m. local time in the Bally's Ballroom and there are ten levels of 60 minutes each scheduled with a break every two levels and a 75-minute dinner break after the sixth level of the day at approximately 5.40 p.m. local time.
All participants start with 30,000 in chips and initial blinds of 100/100 and a big blind ante of 100. With the late registration open until Day 2 at the very same starting time the following day, all those still competing for the WSOP gold bracelets in the final events of the 2022 WSOP still have a chance to enter the fray as well.
The three-day tournament will conclude the very successful series in Las Vegas on Wednesday, July 20, and the final day will also be streamed on the PokerGO platform as well. All exclusive live updates from start to finish can be found right here on PokerNews until the final gold bracelet winner of the 2022 WSOP at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas has been crowned.

Massoud Eskandari can be found in the field and two WSOP gold bracelet winners share the same table. Ryan Laplante and Michael Wang are taking a shot at increasing their tally and the latter "just squeezed in", as Laplante jokingly referred to upon spotting the well-known opponent.
Just one day ago, Wang won his second gold bracelet in Event #87: $5,000 8-Handed No-Limit Hold'em after defeating Farid Jattin in heads-up to claim a top prize worth $541,604.

Picking up the action on the 
turn, Brad Ruben bet 1,100 in the hijack and was called by Christina Gollins in the cutoff. They headed to the 
turn on which Ruben bet another 3,500. Gollins instantly called and then mucked when Ruben tabled the 
for nines full of treys.
"Wow, you are running hot," Gollins sighed in table chat to which Ruben replied "the last time I had the nine of diamonds, I didn't keep them".

Kathy Sawers was on the button in a four-way pot on a board reading 
.
The first player to act bet 1,500 and Sawers was the only one to call. The river brought the 
and both players checked.
"Jack," announced the opponent, who then mucked when Sawers showed 
for a rivered pair of kings.

During a remarkable WSOP International Circuit stop at the Casino Royale on Sint Maarten, La Sengphet won her sixth WSOP Circuit ring. She had already won her entry into the Tournament of Champions in a previous WSOP Circuit stop and reached the final table in all but one of the events she played on the "friendly island" back then.
Picking up the three-way action to the 
turn, the action checked to Sengphet and she bet 1,100 on the button for the big blind and the hijack to call. Two checks followed on the 
river on which Sengphet bet another 2,800. That forced two folds and the pot was shipped to the Texan.
