It was a wild day on the felt in Event #60: $10,000 Short Deck No-Limit Hold'em at the 2022 WSOP at Bally's and Paris Las Vegas that saw chips flying in all directions throughout the opening eight levels. There were a total of 102 entries recorded and only 37 players bagged up chips to move on to Day 2.

After all the dust settled, it was Elior Sion who bagged up the largest stack of the day with 372,000 chips. Sion was one of the later entries after the last break of the day but quickly spun up his starting stack of 60,000 chips into the largest in the room. Sion is a former WSOP gold bracelet winner, with that coming in 2017 in the Poker Players Championship.

Also among the leaders are Stephen Chidwick who bagged up 352,000 chips after some late-night heroics and four-time bracelet winner Ben Yu, who finished the night with 314,100 chips. Chidwick's hot run came on the heels of a bluff from the defending champion Chance Kornuth (196,700 chips) in the last level of the night. Chidwick rivered the second nuts and let Kornuth do all the betting for him.

The day kicked off at 3 p.m. with around 20 players taking their seats at the start of play but that number quickly escalated. With each player getting three bullets of 20,000 chips apiece, there was no shortage of action at any point. Some of those that were unlucky to hit the rail throughout the day include Justin Bonomo, Dario Sammartino, Shaun Deeb, Scott Seiver, and Felipe Ramos.

There were many others who managed to make their way unscathed through the day, minus some minor bumps in the road. Daniel Negreanu was forced to use his second bullet but managed to finish the day just shy of 100,000 chips. Others like Sam Soverel were at the mercy of the deck as they learned the game as the day went on. Soverel often used the "all-in or fold" strategy and that seemed to work for him much to the chagrin of Dan Zack who was forced to double him up.

In general, it was a fun day at the table for most with plenty of drinks going around the room. Late registration will remain open until the start of Day 2 which begins at 2 p.m. local time. The action will resume on Level 9 with the ante at 1,200 and the levels will continue to be 60 minutes in length. The schedule indicates that they will play down to the final five players but that remains to be determined depending on how the day pans out.
