The rail was packed for eight 60-minute levels of the largest buy-in event of the summer as some of the world's best poker players took to the felt for Day 1 of Event #40: $250,000 Super High Roller at the 2023 World Series of Poker. Many fans turned up to get a glimpse of some great poker action along with their favorite players.

A total of 56 entries were recorded on the opening day and just 37 players advanced to Day 2, which will occur tomorrow inside the Horseshoe Event Center. It was a field littered with many household names and WSOP champions, but businessman Dustin Bailey stole the show, bagging up the chip lead with 4,850,000 chips. Bailey entered the field in the middle of the day and wasted no time building a noteworthy chip stack.

Bailey was seated next to the infamous Phil Ivey right from the start, and that's where he finished as well. The two players battled in multiple pots throughout the day with Bailey coming out on top. He also engaged in some pleasantries with fellow big-stack Chance Kornuth who held the chip lead for much of the day, finishing with a stack of 4,340,000. However, in the last level of the night, Bailey won a classic coin flip versus Brian Kim where he spiked a king on the river to take over the lead and never look back.

Other big stacks moving on to Day 2 include Steven Veneziano who is making his first appearance at the 2023 WSOP. Veneziano dug himself an early hole and found himself the first player at risk in the opening level. However, Veneziano managed to double up and then proceeded to knock out multiple players en route to a Day 2 stack of 4,315,000. Henrik Hecklen (4,285,000) was the only other player to bag a stack of over four million chips.

The action kicked off at 2 p.m. local time with just 12 players taking their seats on the opening deal of the cards. However, that number quickly grew in the opening levels and this tournament has the potential of setting another record at this buy-in level. Defending champion Alex Foxen captured the title last year after outlasting a field of 56 entries and earning over $4.5 million in the process. Foxen had a tough day at the tables today, busting out in the last few hands of the night.

He, along with many others, will have the opportunity to reenter before the start of Day 2 which begins at 1 p.m. PST. Late registration will be open for any others who wish to join with a fresh stack of 1,500,000 chips. The blinds will be resuming at 15,000/30,000 and a 30,000 big blind ante with 60-minute levels throughout the tournament.

There were three former WSOP Main Event champions who also advanced to Day 2 including the previous two champions. Espen Jorstad (2,800,000), Koray Aldemir (3,535,000), and Phil Hellmuth (1,590,000) all survived the day, with only Jorstad having to fire a second bullet.

Other players that were forced to use their single reentry included Jonathan Jaffe, Alex Kulev, Artur Martirosian, Dan Smith, and Chris Brewer. Aleksejs Ponakovs was also forced to put forth $500,000 in buy-ins but will not be returning for Day 2 tomorrow. Others that are expected to join Foxen in the late registration line are Sean Winter, Sam Soverel, and Martin Kabrhel who just arrived in Las Vegas today.

The PokerNews live reporting team will be here to bring you all of the updates and any exciting highlights that take place throughout the day, so stay tuned to find out who will make a deep run in the largest buy-in event of the summer.

Jake Schindler raised to 50,000 from early position and was three-bet by Danny Tang to 150,000 from middle position. Schindler made the call and the two players saw a flop of 2?9?2?.

Schindler would commit his remaining 250,000 chips in the form of a check-raise versus the 80,000 chip flop bet from Tang, Tang called right away.

Jake Schindler: K?9?
Danny Tang: 10?10?

Schindler flopped top pair, but would still be behind the pocket tens of Tang. The turn Q? and the river 10? would leave Schindler in second place and out of the tournament.

Rast Gets an All-In Through; Mateos and Chen Collide in Big Pot

Level 8 : Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
James Chen
James Chen

Brian Rast moved all-in for his remaining 400,000 in chips after early and middle position calls from Phil Hellmuth and James Chen. Both would ultimately fold, giving Rast some much-needed chips.

Rast, Hellmuth and Chen would be involved in the next hand, as well, this time with the addition of Adrian Mateos. Mateos raised to 50,000 from early position and was called by Chen in middle position, Rast in late position and Hellmuth in the big blind.

Hellmuth check-folded to a bet of 65,000 from Mateos on a flop of 7?10?A?, but both Chen and Rast called.

Mateos continued applying pressure on the 2? in the form of 285,000 and was again called by Chen. Rast folded.

The rolls reversed on the A? river, as it would be Chen betting 700,000, nearly enough to put Mateos all-in, after being checked to by Mateos. Mateos quickly folded.

Chance Kornuth - Alex Kulev

Chance Kornuth raised it up in early position and was called by Chris Hunichen in the cutoff and Phil Ivey on the button. The flop came 7?6?2? and Kornuth continued with a bet of 45,000 which both of his opponents called.

The 7? paired the board on the turn and the action checked around to the A? on the river. Kornuth put together a bet of 285,000 and Hunichen quickly called while Ivey sent his cards to the muck. Kornuth turned over 8?7? for trip sevens and Hunichen conceded the pot.

Foxen Picks-Off Big River Bluff, Ponakovs Left Short

Level 6 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Kristen Foxen
Kristen Foxen

Aleksejs Ponakovs bet 325,000 from late position, after being checked to by Kristen Foxen from the small blind on a board reading A?8?2?J?, with Foxen making the call.

Foxen would check to Ponakovs again on the J? river and this time Ponakovs chose a larger bet size in the form of 525,000, putting the pressure on Foxen.

After using up two of her time bank chips, Foxen found the call and would be rewarded as she tabled A?10? for two pair, aces and jacks, with Ponakovs turning over Q?7? for a queen-high missed flush draw.

Espen Jorstad
Espen Jorstad

Espen Jorstad and Chance Kornuth were heads-up in a pot with around 500,000 in the middle. The board read 10?8?5?2? and after Jorstad check-raised the flop, the 2022 WSOP Main Event Champion shoved all in for his last 400,000 on the turn. Kornuth snap-called and the cards were tabled.

Espen Jorstad: 5?5?
Chance Kornuth: 10?10?

Both players flopped a set but Jorstad was left drawing to just a single out. The river was the 3? and Jorstad was eliminated, sending his chips to Kornuth.

Chance Kornuth
Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth raised from early position and was three-bet by Chris Brewer from the big blind to 110,000. Kornuth responded by four-betting to 205,000 and Brewer moved all-in, with Kornuth making the call.

Chris Brewer: 10?10?
Chance Kornuth: A?Q?

It was a classic flip, but Kornuth would pull ahead immediately in the form of the A? on the 7?A?K? flop and would stay ahead on a runout of 5?J?, for a final board of 10?A?K?5?J?, sending Brewer to the rail.
