The second Championship event of the 54th World Series of Poker at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas is set to kick off Monday with Event #14: $10,000 Seven Card Stud.

Last year, it was Adam Friedman earning his fifth WSOP bracelet by defeating a field of 96 Seven Card Stud studs, including runner-up Jean "Prince" Gaspard, and third-place finisher, Hall of Famer Phil Ivey.

This event never fails to attract the elite of poker��s mixed game world, and this year will be no different, with hopes that with entry open throughout Day 1 and up to the start of Day 2, the field could cross over 100 players.

Sunday��s champion of the $1,500 variation of this event, now four-time WSOP bracelet winner Nick Schulman is expected to be among the many big names in the field.

Cards will be in the air at 2 p.m. local time in the Paris ballroom for the first of ten levels. The first six of which will be 40 minutes in length, with levels seven through ten 60 minutes long. Level times extend to 90 minutes on Day 2 until the conclusion of the event.

Players will receive 15-minute breaks after every two hours of play, which will conclude at approximately 10:45 p.m.

The first players to take their seats at 2 p.m. with their 60,000 chip starting stacks will begin at limits of 500 and 1,000, representing 60 big bets.
