Event #3: $500 Kickoff No-Limit Hold'em Freezeout saw British businessman Daniel Willis win his first bracelet ever. Willis defeated Michael Wang �� who was in the hunt for his third bracelet �� heads up to take down the $175,578 first-place prize.

��Coming off the first event I played and have a huge win, it��s a dream come true moment,�� Willis said with a smile.

Despite its small buy-in, the event attracted a field of 3,485 entries which included several other WSOP bracelet winners like Daniel Negreanu, Ryan Riess, Tamas Lendvai, Jason Wheeler, Joseph Altomonte, Qiang Xu, and Marco Johnson.

Despite his win, Willis isn't planning to extend his stay in Vegas much longer. ��I��m definitely going to try and play the Mystery Bounty, probably take a day off and celebrate,�� Willis said. ��I��ll probably play a few more events, and then I got to get back to work.��

Poker player and presenter Jamie Kerstetter bubbled the official final table of Event #4: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better today, leaving the way clear for James Chen to win the event.

Kerstetter started the final nine with just two big bets and was soon sent on her way by Lewis Brant who went on to take second place.

The event attracted 928 entries and generated a prize pool of $1,238,880 of which $209,350 was pegged for first place.

Brant had a big disadvantage while chasing the top prize as he started heads-up play with less than 10 percent of the chips in play. However, he managed to fight his way down to a ratio of 3:1 before Chen was able to wrestle momentum back from him. Chen then finished Brant off with a full house over flush that sent Brant to the rail.

Brant won $139,563 for second place.
