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.

Day 1 Begins
Nível 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Cards are in the air for Day 1 of Event #85: $1,500 Shootout. So far, 831 seats have been sold.
The Straddle Is On
Nível 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
On the outer edge of the tables in-play, Milan Stojkovic announced that the straddle was on and put a blind min-raise to 400 under the gun.
Action began and it folded to the button who opened to 1,200. The blinds both folded and Stojkovic defended his "straddle".
The A♦4♣10♣ landed on the flop and action quickly checked through. The turn brought a 7♠ and Stojkovic opted to lead for 1,700. The button called.
The river was the 8♥ and Stojkovic led again. This time he made it 2,000 and the button essentially snap called. Stojkovic tabled A♣3♠ and the button mucked.
It pays to put the "straddle" on.

Easy Pot for Okamoto

Jaime Longoria opened to 600 and Shiina Okamoto three-bet to 1,800 on the button. The button called and so did Longoria.
The flop came 6♣7♠J♣ and it checked to Okamoto who continued for 3,000. It was enough to win the pot right away.

Stepuchin Drills the River
Nível 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Action folded to a player in late position who opened to 500. It then folded to Frank Stepuchin in the big blind who defended.
The A♣Q♣5♦ flop hit the felt and Stepuchin check-called a 500 bet from his opponent.
The turn brought a Q♦ and action slowed down and checked through.
The 7♦ river landed and Stepuchin opted to lead for 1,300. His opponent didn't think for long before raising to 3,500. Stepuchin snap called.
His opponent tabled K♦8♦ for a rivered flush and Stepuchin tabled 7♠7♥ for a rivered boat.
