Event #70: $400 Colossus No-Limit Hold'em Begins at 10 AM
The 2023 World Series of Poker continues at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas today with the Event #70: $400 Colossus No-Limit Hold'em at 10 a.m local time. The Colossus is the second lowest buy-in event at the WSOP, so an absolutely massive field is expected as they all dream of bracelet glory.
The reigning champion is United Kingdom's Paul Hizer who beat a field of 13,565 entrants to claim the first-place prize of $414,490 as well as his first WSOP bracelet. If trends from this year's WSOP continue, then the entrants and prize pool will dwarf last year's numbers as Event #18: $300 Gladiators of Poker No-Limit Hold'em showed with its 23,088 entrants and $5,679,648 prize pool.

Zhang Takes it on the River
Livello 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
With about 1,500 in the middle, the flop of Q♥10♦9♠ was already on the felt and Jeffrey Zhang bet 400. His only opponent in the hand made the call.
The 10♠ hit the turn, and Zhang continued for 1,200 before his opponent called again.
When the A♠ completed the board, Zhang paused for a moment before dropping a red chip across the line, for a bet of 5,000. His opponent thought about it for a few seconds before pushing his cards towards the dealer.

Granados Amassing a Big Stack Early
Livello 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Angel Granados raised to 600 from middle position. The cutoff then three-bet to 1,800, which Granados called.
The flop came 5♠Q♣9♥, and Granados checked before calling the 2,100-chip bet from the cutoff.
The 5♣ followed the same pattern, with Granados check-calling 3,000.
The A♦ hit the river. Granados led out this time, betting 6,000. After shuffling his 5,000-denomination chips for a minute, the cutoff tossed in a call. Granados' Q♦7♦ was good when he turned it over, and he added to his growing stack.
