Today marks the culmination of Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em 6-Handed at the prestigious World Series of Poker, hosted at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. The showdown awaits as 20 skilled contenders return to the tables, vying for the coveted $439,815 first-place prize and the iconic trophy bracelet.
Daniel Palau, seemingly poised for victory, leads the pack with a formidable stack of 6,790,000 chips. However, the remaining players will not concede easily. Among the challengers are notable talents like Anthony Marquez (3,900,040), Simeon Spasov (3,750,000), and Tommy Nguyen (1,020,000), each boasting impressive poker pedigrees, and they will all be vying for their second bracelet. Marquez's "TSN Turning Point," occurred when he boosted his chips with a queens versus nines pot for his tournament life after taking a hard chip loss on a previous hand.
