Welcome to the Final Day of Event #33: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em
The original field of 1,698 players has now been reduced to just 22 in Event #33: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em and they will play down to a winner today in the Brasilia room of the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino as the 2017 World Series of Poker continues.
One of these players will a WSOP gold bracket and a huge payday of $384,833. Ryan Leng from the United States leads the way with 1,370,000, but it really is anyone’s game as there are several players close behind him with many tough competitors to outlast, not the least of which being four-time bracelet winner Max Pescatori.
Other notables to have made it through a stacked field are U.S. players Pratyush Buddiga, Michael Gagliano and Grant Denison, Tom Hall from the U.K., and Germany’s Christopher Frank. Check out the full seat draw to start Day 3 below.
Cards are back in the air at 12 noon today local time and the PokerNews live reporting team will bring your all the drama from the felt including exclusive hand-for-hand coverage from the official final table. Make sure to keep it here so you don’t miss a moment of the action.
