The Amazon room has been filling up slowly but surely with players in the Orange, Purple and Gold section and they have been instructed with the official rules for the tournament, the daily schedule and the remainder of the tournament.

"How is everyone doing today?" WSOP tournament director Jack Effel said when taking over the microphone and welcoming all players, triggering applause across the room. In his 14th year in charge, Effel then handed over the duties to defending Main Event champion Scott Blumstein

"Alright everyone, shuffle up and deal!" Blumstein announced after giving some advice that worked out for him in the previous year and right after, the cards went in the air.
