Welcome to Day 1 of Event #85: $1,500 Shootout No-Limit Hold'em
The 2023 World Series of Poker continues in full swing at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas with another tournament about to give its shuffle and deal this morning at 10 a.m. local time, Event #85: $1,500 Shootout No-Limit Hold'em. The shootout format is such that players must win their table in each round to advance.
Last year's tournament saw 1,000 players enter the field, generating a prize pool of $1,335,000, with the top 100, those who won their table the first round, receiving a minimum cash of $5,835. As this is a record-breaking year, the prizepool is set to be greatly exceeded, with the cap raised to 2,000 players.
Of those many entrants, the last man standing in 2022 was Michael Simhai after he defeated David Dowdy in heads-up play at the final table. Simhai took home the first-place prize of $240,480, as well as his first gold bracelet and biggest live cash.

Players will begin the day with 25,000 chips. Blinds will begin at 100-200 with a 200 big blind ante. Levels are scheduled for 40 minutes, with 20-minute breaks after every third level. A 60-minute optional dinner break is scheduled after Level 9, expected to be around 4:40 p.m. local time.
Late registration will close after 3 levels (around 12:20 p.m. local time) or once the cap is hit. All stacks will be in play from the start of the day, meaning late-registering players will enter the tournament with less than a full starting stack. When registration closes, unsold stacks will be removed from play.
