Nathan Gamble went nearly wire-to-wire Sunday to take the chip lead into Monday’s Day 2 of Event #7: $1,500 Dealers Choice. The two-time WSOP bracelet winner leads the remaining field of 88 mixed game aficionados seeking WSOP glory, with 47 making the money today.

Ray Henson challenged Gamble for the chip lead most of Day 1 and enters Monday with a beefy stack of 216,000 chips. 2018 champion in this event, Jeremy Harkin brings 134,000 into today’s action. They’ll be joined by a litany of mixed game superstars including Mike Wattel (117,500), Daniel Negreanu (115,500), Matt Glantz (115,000), Eli Elezra (90,000), Phil Hellmuth (88,500), Brian Rast (81,500), Benny Glaser (71,000), and Adam Friedman (68,000) to name just a few.

Ten levels will be played today beginning at 3 pm (pushed back one hour due to Sunday’s start time being delayed an hour), beginning with level 16. The players will have a 60-minute dinner break after level 21.

Stay tuned to PokerNews to see who navigates their way to Day 3 and a shot at the $97,915 top prize and the WSOP gold bracelet.

Razz

Maxx Coleman gave up a first Razz pot to Mike Thorpe and soon after both clashed again. They were already on sixth and Thorpe asked if he should squeeze or not with Coleman at risk.

Mike Thorpe: {2-}{5-} / {a-}{k-}{k-}{9-} / {x-}
Maxx Coleman: {9-}{3-}{3-}{8-}{8-}{10-} / {x-}

Thorpe indeed squeezed and revealed the {10-}, which locked up the pot for him. He jumped out of the seat and screamed "yeahhhhh I fuck". Coleman was drawing dead and revealed a queen as his final card.

Pot Limit Omaha

The table of Benny Glaser kicked off with Pot-Limit Omaha and it was Glaser who three-bet on the button. Jeremy Harkin came along to the {q-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop on which Glaser bet the pot for 41,000. Harkin quickly got out of the way and Glaser increased his stack without showdown.

Day 1 chip leader Nathan Gamble alerted the live reporting staff that he had increased his stack already.

Gamble waved, pointed at his stack and said, "more", then passed along a fortuitous runout in Stud Hi-Lo Regular that boosted his stack to 265,000.
