WSOP Day 20: Deeb Leads $10K Dealer's Choice Final Five; Bonomo at Shootout Final Table

6 min read
Shaun Deeb

Today's Day 20 will feature seven events, including three new tournaments kicking off. Two of the events will be awarding bracelets today and there are some big names in contention for their next bracelet.

One big story to watch out for is whether Shaun Deeb can parlay his chip lead in the $10,000 Dealer's Choice Championship into his fifth career bracelet or whether someone else such as returning champion Adam Friedman keep him from doing so.

And will Justin Bonomo be able to add a fourth piece of WSOP hardware to his wrist with the final ten battling it out in the $3,000 Shootout?


Event #34: $1,000 Double Stack No-Limit Hold'em

Day 3 in this event kicks off at noon PDT with 359 players battling it out from the original field of 6,214 entrants.

Event #37: $800 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack

This relatively affordable new event attracted a big field of 2,808 to create a $1,999,296 prize pool on yesterday's first of three days. This is almost triple the $750,000 guarantee the WSOP slapped onto the event.

Despite the low price tag of $800, this event attracted some of poker's most recognizable talent. Three-time bracelet winner Dutch Boyd, 2006 WSOP Main Event champion Jamie Gold, five-time bracelet winner Michael Mizrachi, David Williams, Kathy Leibert, and Barry Greenstein were among those in play but will not be among the 671 survivors for today's penultimate day starting at noon PDT.

Phil Ivey

Big names that did find a bag include ten-time bracelet winner Phil Ivey (260,000), fifteen-time bracelet winner Phil Hellmuth (231,000), two-time winner Elio Fox (444,000), and three-time winner Greg Mueller (55,000).

This group enters today's action well behind the 776,000 in chips the Day 1 chip leader Jose Brito managed to accumulate.

Today will feature 40-minutes blind levels with the day scheduled to end when just six players remain. The final day tomorrow will feature longer 60-minute blind levels and will be broadcasted via a live stream at CBS All Access in the United States, Canada, and Australia and at PokerGO in the rest of the world.

Event #39: $1,000 Super Seniors No-Limit Hold'em

Yesterday, Howard Mash sealed the deal with a win in Event #32: $1,000 Seniors No-Limit Hold'em Championship for $662,594 after utterly dominating the action throughout the tournament.

Mash won't be able to go for his second bracelet in this event, as the Super Seniors event restricted to those over the age of 60 years old, with Mash only having just turned 50.

The three-day event kicks off with an early start time of 10 a.m. PDT today. Players start with a big stack of 20,000 in chips and will partake in ten hour-long blind levels before breaking for the day. Those unsuccessful at first can opt to reenter once until late registration closes after the conclusion of Level 8.

Event #40: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha

This event provides yet another chance for pot-limit Omaha players to snag a bracelet. Last year, Ryan Bambrick etched his name into WSOP history by finishing on top of a field of 799 entrants to win his first WSOP bracelet and the $217,123 top prize.

The final six players will get a chance to shine in front of family and friends on live stream broadcasted at CBS All Access in the United States, Canada, and Australia, and at PokerGO in the rest of the world.

Event #41: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship

The Stud Championship is the final of the three events to begin today. Players start off at 3 p.m. PDT with a big stack of 60,000 in chips and are scheduled to play ten blind levels of an hour each.

Players bagging chips will play for three more days with 90-minute blind levels until a winner has been crowned on live stream at CBS All Access in and at PokerGO on Thursday, June 20.

Yaniv Birman

The turnout is expected to be manageable when considering last year's event attracted 83 entrants to create a $780,200 prize pool. Yaniv Birman snagged his first WSOP bracelet which came with a $236,238 top prize.
