After 15 40-minute levels the action has come to a close on Day 1 of Event #7: $1,500 Dealer's Choice Six-Handed here at 55th World Series of Poker (WSOP) at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. The event attracted a star-studded field of 530 entrants that included several poker hall of famers, bracelet winners and mixed game specialists while also topping last year's attendance of 456 for this event. The entrants from this year's event created a massive $707,550 prize pool.

Five-time bracelet winner Benny Glaser found himself near the very top of the counts by the end of the night, finishing with 261,500. Other notables to bag big by the end of the night include Scott Bohlman (259,500), Andrew Kelsall (240,500), Hanh Tran (225,500) and Jeff Madsen (193,000).

Day 1 Action

Chad Eveslage
Chad Eveslage

Although the action was slow to start today, given the slow structure, deep starting stacks, and the presence of many split-pot games, the pace quickened up following the first break. Defending champion Chad Eveslage found himself in rough shape early on after being chopped up by Yueqi Zhu and Nitis Udornpim in a hand of Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo Regular. Eveslage nursed a short stack for most of the day following that hand before ultimately falling in one of the last levels of the night.

Another highlight midway through the day saw Keenan Kuhn win a four-way all in Pot-Limit Omaha hand to bust Mike Matusow and leave Carol Fuchs, who won this event in 2015, on a very short stack.

Other notables who joined the action but fell before the end of the night include Adam Friedman, Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, Scott Seiver, Brad Ruben, Greg Raymer, Norman Chad, Todd Brunson, Alex Livingston, Nick Schulman and Allen Kessler.

Day 2 picks up tomorrow, May 31, at 1 p.m. local time on Level 16. The plan is to play ten 60-minute levels, with a 15-minute break after every two levels and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 21 at approximately 7:30 p.m.

As always, stay tuned to PokerNews for our continuing coverage of this event until a winner is crowned on June 1, the final day.
