The Race To the Money Commences on Day 2 of Event #33: $10,000 Razz Championship
Day 2 of the Event #33: $10,000 Razz Championship is slated to recommence at 1 p.m. local time. The latest Championship Event of the 2023 World Series of Poker has attracted 102 unique players thus far at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas to generate a prize pool of $948,600 but both numbers are subject to change, as the late registration remains open until the cards go back in the air.
Leading the way thus far is Roy Thung with 303,000 in chips but several big names of the mixed games scene are hot on his heels such as Scott Bohlman (271,000), Adam Owen (252,000), Bryce Yockey (244,500), and Brian Yoon (241,500).
