The players of the 2024 WSOP have reached what is the biggest buy-in of the series so far. Event #21: $25,000 NLH 6-Max saw a total of 216 entrants throwing their hat into the ring. This puts the prize pool at $5,076,000, and with registration open until the end of the first level of Day 2, it looks to grow in size. Just 76 of those initial 216 have survived to the end of the day.
Leading the way is Chicago’s own Brandon Wilson, who bagged 1,388,000. Wilson burst onto the poker scene within the past couple of years and has been steadily amassing wins and cashes in lots of high rollers around the country. Already having established himself as one of the best young crushers in the game, Wilson’s massive stack today seems to be a good start to what is likely to be a busy summer for this young man.
Another young man making a name for himself in the poker scene is Michael Jozoff, who ended his day with 1,127,000. One of the youngest players in the field, Jozoff’s tournament results have been building over the past couple of years. With a ninth-place finish in last year’s $25k 8-max, Jozoff will be hunting for his first WSOP bracelet to add to his burgeoning resume.
Justin Saliba found himself the recipient of a late-night double-up when his kings held against Chris Hunichen’s tens. He bagged up a sizable 767,000, good for just under one hundred big blinds. The two-time WSOP bracelet winner looks to add a first live WSOP bracelet to his already quite decorated resume. With several deep runs in the previous years in the WSOP, Saliba looks to start the summer off right with a good run in this tournament.

Phil Ivey (411,000) and Daniel Negreanu (126,000) both hopped in late in the day and survived onto the following day. Many more line the list of accomplished players looking to carve their names a little deeper into WSOP legacy.
Not all were able to survive throughout the day. Adrian Mateos burned through two bullets, joining the rail along with Alex Kulev, Stephen Chidwick, Seth Davies, Jonathan Jaffe, Espen Jorstad, Koray Aldemir and Jesse Lonis along with others. Those who did not fire a second bullet will have the right to re-enter the following day until the end of level 9.
Players will return tomorrow (June 7) at 12:00 p.m. local time for the second day of the tournament. Players will start at Level 9 with blinds at 4,000/8,000 with an 8,000 big blind ante. Play will resume in the Horseshoe Silver section.

: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Phil Ivey just scooped in a massive pot, with the dealer recapping the preflop action to PokerNews.
Ivey opened from under the gun and picked up called from Joao Vieira and Martin Stausholm. The big blind then jammed for over 215,000 and Ivey snap-called off his stack of 178,000 before the remaining players folded.
Phil Ivey: J♣J♦
Big Blind: 10x10x
Ivey's superior pair remained best and he banked a late Day 1 double up after the 8♣4♥6♠8♥3♠ runout.

On the last hand of the night on Table 125, Michael Jozoff raised to 12,000 from under the gun before Paulius Plausinaitis three-bet to 36,000 from the cutoff. John Kincaid was on the button, and used two time banks before ripping in his stack of 222,000. The blinds got out of the way to put the action on Jozoff. He stared intently at the tournament board, and laid his hand down. Plausinaitis did the same.
Jozoff then began talking to Kincaid, saying he'd show his hand if Kincaid did. They ended up coming to an agreement and Kincaid tabled his J♦J♠ first. Kincaid was then stunned as Jozoff flashed A♠K♠.
"You FOLDED ace-king?" said Kincaid as the players began to bag.

David Coleman opened the button to 12,000. Artur Martirosian three-bet out of the small blind to 55,000 before Taylor Paur moved all-in out of the big blind for around 70,000. Coleman folded, but Martirosian put in the call.
Taylor Paur: K♥10♦
Artur Martirosian 6♠5♠
The board ran out favorably for Martirosian as it came 6♥Q♥2♦7♥6♦. Paur was sent to the rail as Martirosian moved over the on-million chip mark.

Ren Lin opened to 13,000 from under the gun and called when Chris Hunichen made it 44,000 from the big blind. Lin called.
Hunichen continued for 27,000 on the A♥8♦3♠ flop and was called. Hunichen then check-called for 65,000 on the K♠ turn.
The J♠ river completed the board, and Hunichen jammed as the bigger stack. Lin, with 140,000 behind, fell unusually quiet, mulling over his options. He decided to lay his hand down and award Hunichen the pot.
"Professional bluff," commented Lin as he tried to implore Hunichen to show his hand. The latter denied his request as he added the chips to his stack.
