WSOP Online Bracelet Event #1: $5,300 No-Limit Hold'em High Roller Freezeout Kicks Off at 3:30 p.m.
Welcome to the opening WSOP.com online bracelet event of the 2022 World Series of Poker. Event #1: $5,300 No-Limit Hold'em High Roller Freezeout is scheduled to get underway at 3:30 p.m. Pacific Time.
There are 13 online bracelets to be won on WSOP.com for players in Nevada and New Jersey between June 5 and July 17, in addition to the 88 live bracelet events in Las Vegas during the summer.
There��s already over 20 people registered for the tournament an hour before it begins, including Tony ��Panoramic�� Dunst, Jesse "Dangerous22" Lonis, Mitchell "franzia" Halverson, Katie "katelin" Lindsay, Thomas "HavanaClub" Boivin, and Ryan "Protential" Laplante.
Justin ��Jsaliba2" Saliba took down this event during the WSOP online bracelet series in July 2021 for his first bracelet and $253,800. He was the last player standing in the tournament which saw a $940,000 prize pool from 188 entrants, and perhaps he��ll make an appearance today.
It also wouldn��t be surprising to see reigning WSOP.com Player of the Year Mike ��BrockLesnar�� Holtz in the mix as he��s a regular on the platform and has had many successful results in the past. He finished in ninth place in the previous running of this event, won a WSOP circuit ring in November 2021, and may be looking to add a bracelet to his jewelry collection in this event.
Players will begin with 25,000 chips, blinds will begin at 50/100 with a 10 ante, and levels will increase every 20 minutes. Late registration is open for four hours and only one entry is permitted, as this is a freezeout event.
Stay tuned for updates of this event on PokerNews until a champion is crowned, along with updates of WSOP Online Bracelet Event #2: $500 No-Limit Hold'em BIG500, which is slated to begin at 4:30 p.m. Pacific Time.
