A nice field of 1,355 contenders generated a healthy prize pool of $1,808,925 in Event #34: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha. Exactly 98 players will be in the Gold section of the Horseshoe Main Event Center vying for a first place prize of $298,192 on Day 2. There are at least two players who are after the hardware more than anything in the form of Daniel Negreanu and Josh Arieh; the latter won his fifth bracelet just days ago and bagged the chip lead last night. Negreanu is notorious for placing bracelet bets and always puts a full schedule in every summer on the quest for more gold.

Other notables joining Day 2 include the likes of John Racener, who has $11,216,800 in reported tournament earnings and Robert Mizrachi, a four-time bracelet winner. The only two players to join Arieh in the millionaire club were the likes of Matthew Parry and Eric Fields.
