WSOP Event #43 $1K NLHE Super Seniors Day 1
Just 8 PNW players in the 253 coming back from Day 1’s field of 65-and-older entrants. As you might expect, play is incredibly tight, and that combined with this years’ increase in starting stacks, a third of the returning players won’t make the money (in most previous years’ $1Ks, the money bubble burst near the end of Day 1).
