Day 2 of Event #33: $600 Pot-Limit Omaha DeepStack Set to Play Down to Winner
Day 2 of Event #33: $600 Pot-Limit Omaha Deepstack at the 2024 World Series of Poker will return to action at 11 a.m. Las Vegas time. A whopping 2,402 entries on Day 1 generated a total prize pool of $1,225,020. Only 95 competitors will return to Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas for their chance of Gold.
Maxx Coleman has himself in a position to win another bracelet, having bagged third in chips; he’s only behind Natalio Pereira (2,240,000) and Jose Ferro (2,200,000).
Ryan Coon (690,000) had several deep runs in PLO events in the 2023 World Series and he’s looking to better the runner-up spot he took last year. Todd Estes (675,000) is looking for his second piece of gold and remains well in contention. Nipun Java (220,000) and Michael Wang (170,000) are both looking for their third piece of hardware but will need to make up some ground.
Plenty of big names and previous bracelet winners ran deep enough to get in the money but fell short of Day 2: Koray Aldemir, Sean Troha, Joe Cada, Ryan Riess, Kane Kalas, and Daniel Negreanu, just to name a few.
