The second-most expensive Pot-Limit Omaha Event of the 2023 World Series of Poker at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas will be one step closer to crowning a champion when the action resumes at 1 p.m. local time in the Horseshoe Event Center. Out of a record-breaking field of 449 entries, only 31 players remain in contention on Day 3 of Event #57: $25,000 High Roller Pot-Limit Omaha and their sights are all set on being one of the five left standing for the live-streamed showdown.
All contenders still in the mix have a portion of the $10,551,500 prize pool locked up with a payday of $68,722 guaranteed so far. However, all eyes are set on the monster top prize of $2,294,756. Compared to last year’s event, the attendance was boosted astronomically by 185 entries and several big names of the international poker scene will be competing for the coveted WSOP gold bracelet over the remaining two tournament days.
Three-time WSOP bracelet winner Chance Kornuth leads the way with 7,245,000, with Dylan Weisman in second with 4,355,000, and 2023 bracelet winner Isaac Haxton rounds out the top three with 4,320,000.
Day 1 Chip Leader Firas Kashat also bagged a large stack of 4,185,000 and Jeremy Ausmus can also be found in the top ten after bagging 2,290,000.

Kashat moved all in, covering Schaefer, who quickly moved his chips in to put himself at risk.
Brandon Schaefer: A♦A♠Q♣8♣
Firas Kashat: K♦Q♥10♥10♠
Schaefer was ahead at the moment, but that quickly changed when the turn J♠ gave Kashat a straight and the river completed with the 7♠ to eliminate Schaefer.
