Another dramatic day is ahead at the 2024 World Series of Poker Paradise, with five bracelet events on the schedule that now includes Event #5: $25,000 Dealers Choice Championship.

The final four contenders will return at 2 p.m. local time to Atlantis Paradise Island Bahamas, where the chase for the hardware and $353,340 first-place prize continues on an added Day 3.

Leading the way is Eric Wasserson, in search of his first career WSOP gold bracelet. Wasserson brings a sizeable chip advantage into play today, but he'll be resuming that quest against a trio of players with WSOP Player of the Year on their resume.
