WSOP celebrations

Day 24 of the 2023 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas saw no fewer than five gold bracelets find new homes, and several new attendance records broken. Keep reading to discover what went down in Las Vegas on June 22.

Brian Rast became only the second player in history to win the $50,000 Poker Players Championship three times �C Michael Mizrachi is the other �� after they came out on top of Event #43 and banked $1,324,747. Rast's victory has done his chances of being inducted into the Poker Hall of Fame no harm at all; it is hard to argue against the six-time bracelet winner's inclusion after this latest performance.

Event #44: $3,000 No-Limit Hold'em also crowned its champion after four days of intense poker action. When the dust had settled, Yang Zhang emerged with the tournament's bracelet and the $717,879 first place prize.

Pengfei Wang gets to forever call themselves a WSOP champion after they triumphed in Event #49: $1,500 Super Turbo Bounty. The tournament required an extra day after Day 1 ended with nine players from a field of 2,226 entrants. Day 2 lasted onlythree hours and saw Wang capture their first gold bracelet in what was their first-ever live tournament! Talk about beginner's luck!

Brazilian superstar Yuri Dzivielevski became a three-time WSOP bracelet winner after taking down Event #47: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. after three days of intense mixed game action. Dzivielevski, who finished second in last year's $50,000 Poker Players Championship, shone brightly on the third and final day, and emerged as a worthy champion.

The eighth online bracelet-awarding event, the $1,000 PLO Championship, was the fifth event to crown its champion on Day 24 of the 2023 WSOP. Some 383 PLO specialists turned out, and Stanislav "ForlorarDu" Barshak left them all in his wake, turning that initial $1,000 investment into $128,841 and a piece of much sought-after poker jewelry.

Event #48: $1,000 Seniors Championship was one of the events that broke its attendance record, with the 4,488 Day 1b entrants taking the total number of runners to 8,180, comfortably smashing the 7,188 record set in 2022.

By the end of the 11th level, only 894 players had chips in front of them, and nobody had more chips than Joseph Workman (510,000). Workman is the man to catch when the 1,624 surviving players from both flights return to their seats on Day 2.

Day 1b also saw the likes of seven-time bracelet winner Men "The Master" Nguyen (169,000) progress. Fellow bracelet winners Mike Allis (157,500) and Barny Boatman (67,500) also navigated their way through the vast Day 1b field.

Play resumes at 10:00 a.m. local time on June 23, with PokerNews' live reporting team on the ground throughout proceedings.

Only 252 of the 1,282 entrants in Event #51: $1,000 Tag Team No-Limit Hold'em remain in contention for the $95,331 top prize and a gold WSOP bracelet. The most unique and relaxed event of the summer saw dozens of teams enter, some in full cosplay, but things are getting serious no Day 2 is reached and the money bubble looms.

Mark Evangelista (562,000) is the chip leader, and by some distance, Kenneth Gallo in second has 180,000 fewer chips.

Also in the overnight top five is the team made up of Jeremy Palvini and Jean-Paul Pasqualini, who crammed 305,000 chips into their overnight bags.

This event will have a new set of champions because Espen Jorstad and Patrick Leonard, champions in 2022, busted out before day's end.

PokerNews' coverage of this remarkable event resumes at 12:00 p.m. local time on June 23, so be there or be square!
