What would the World Series of Poker Main Event be without a grand entrance from Phil Hellmuth?
The "Poker Brat" showed up for the Day 1d session as P. T. Barnum from The Greatest Showman and was accompanied by his pet lion and aptly nicknamed Dan "Jungleman" Cates.
The reception to Hellmuth's arrival was warmer this summer, a stark contrast from the chorus of boos that greeted him last year.

Chance Kornuth was four ways on a 5♣7♦8♦ flop. The players in the big blind, middle position, and hijack checked to Kornuth on the button, who bet 1,600. Only the hijack called.
Kornuth was checked to again on the 2♠ turn and he fired 5,000 into the middle. His opponent quickly folded and Kornuth took down the pot.
The three-time bracelet winner already has over $3 million in cashes from this year's World Series of Poker alone, including a second-place finish in Event #2: $25,000 High Roller (Six Handed) and will be looking to make a deep run in the Main Event.

Jamie Gold wanted it to happen, and it did. The 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event has set an attendance record with 8,774 entrants and rising at the time of publishing, during Level 1 of Day 1d.
In 2006, Gold's world championship year, the field hit 8,773 players, a record that stood for 17 years. Last year, the WSOP came close to cracking that record, but inevitably fell just a bit short at 8,663 entries, making it the second largest Main Event in history.
