Yesterday's Day 1 of Event #15: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em 6-Handed at the 2023 World Series of Poker at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas hosted 2,454 entrants and generated a prize pool of $3,276,090, of which 369 players were to be paid. The bubble burst by the end of the day's proceedings and 161 players bagged and tagged chips for Day 2.

Brandon Hall was the chip leader after 17 levels of play yesterday. Hall will defend his stack against the remaining players in the second day of this event, who are all guaranteed at least $2,400.

Also bagging decent stacks were Stevens Chen, Matthew Moore, and Allan Le, winner of the 2016 $1500 Mixed PLO/8, Omaha/8, and Big O.

Level 18 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

On a full board that read 4♥10♣2♦2♥K♣ Preston McEwen bet out for 40,000. In response, Eric Yanovsky, who was in early position at the table, reraised all in for 134,000.

After some agonizing time in the tank, McEwen calls. The two pair of Yanovsky, K♥10♠, was ahead of McEwen's K♦J♣ and Yanovsky found a full double.

Down to his last 21,000, McEwen busted a few hands later.
