Welcome to Live Coverage of Event #88: $1,500 The Closer No-Limit Hold'em
Event #88: The Closer No-Limit Hold'em, will have its second and final starting flight today with Day 1b kicking off at 10 a.m. local time at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. Day 1a was filled with action and plenty of big names came to play for one of the last bracelets of the 2023 World Series of Poker.
A total of 76 players advanced from Day 1a out of a total of 1,141 entries and they will merge with the players who advance from today's proceedings, reconvening on Sunday, July 16th at 10 a.m. for the finale. The total prize pool generated from Day 1a was $1,523,235.
Last year’s Day 1a attracted 929 players and this year’s Day 1a surpassed that number with 1,141 entrants. Day 1b is also expected to smash last year’s total of 1,110 runners.
The target for today's players is to surpass end of Day 1a chip-leader Benson Tang, who bagged a sensational 2,185,000. Alan Hamza with 1,910,000 and Jeffrey Tanouve with 1,865,000 round out the top three.
