The remaining 22 teams return for Day 3 of Event #75: $1,000 Tag Team No-Limit Hold'em at the 2024 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
After the two previous days of jockeying for position, Joan Perez - Javier Rodriguez of Team Perez lead the pack with 3,730,000. Joshua Hopkins – Charles Honkonen of Team Hopkins are close behind with 3,305,000.
