Day 1 Completed
Event #17: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Day 1 Completed
The agreed upon theme of the 2023 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas could only be described as "record-breaking" and Event #17: Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better helped to etch that notion into stone as the tournament field broke last year's already record-breaking field by 76 entries, with its 1,143 player field making it the largest Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better tournament in WSOP history.
Along with breaking the record for field size for a second straight year, the event also generated a prize pool of $1,525,905, which is a record of its own. When the 394 remaining players return for Day 2, they will be looking to finish in the top 172 of the field to secure a $2,404 in-the-money finish, with the goal of everyone in the room being to finish in the top spot worth a staggering $262,542 and a coveted WSOP gold bracelet.

There are a number of notable names left in the field including but certainly not limited to Chris Tryba (146,500), Phil Hellmuth (45,000), Mike Matusow (68,500), Max Pescatori (130,000) and Ryan Leng (85,500).
Colin Burton is among the chip leaders, having bagged 202,500. Benjamin Vidal crammed 210,500 chips into his overnight bag, while Adel Shakerian leads the way with a 239,000 stack.
The reigning champion of this event, Amnon Filippi, did enter on Day 1 with intentions of defending his title from last year but fell before the night ended. Other notables that busted short of Day 2 were Allen Kessler and Norman Chad, both of whom never got much going in terms of momentum.
The 394 players to bag Day 1 will return to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas at 1:00 p.m. local time on June 7 for the start of Day 2 with ten 60-minute levels of play scheduled. Stay tuned to PokerNews all summer long for up-to-date action on this and all events at the 2023 World Series of Poker!

Action folded to the button who raised and Jesse Lally made the call to see the flop come down Q♥4♣9♣.
Lally check-called a bet from the button and both players were off to a turn card that was the 5♥. Lally check-called again, prompting the dealer to put out the 6♠ on the river.
Lally checked once more but this time, his opponent checked back. Lally turned over the A♥A♦A♠10♦.
His opponent frustratingly mucked his cards and conceded the pot to Lally who said, "I couldn't get away from it" as he pulled in the pot.

Tournament officials announced that players will see three more hands before bagging up for the night.
Tony Ma raised from under the gun, then called when Alex Wilkinson reraised.
The flop came 8♠Q♦6♥ and Wilkinson continued with a bet. Ma called as the K♠ fell on the turn.
Wilkinson bet again and Ma shot his opponent a quick glance before he tossed in a call. The river came the 7♠ and now Ma led out with a bet.
Wilkinson quickly called with A♣6♦2♦6♣ for trip sixes and a low. Ma had A♥2♥Q♥7♣ for an inferior two pair and the same low as Wilkinson took three-quarters of the pot.

On a completed board reading 2♣3♠5♥8♦J♥ with around 26,000 in the pot, Mike Matusow check-called a bet from his opponent before both players turned their cards up.
Matusow showed the A♦A♠J♣3♥ while his opponent turned up the A♥8♣5♦2♥.
Matusow had the high hand with jacks and threes, but both Matusow and his opponent shared the same low, meaning that Matusow gets 75% of the pot, leaving his opponent quartered and winning only the remaining 25%.
Matusow is one of many big names that still remain as Day 1 nears it's conclusion.

Larry Benardella bet on a board of 10♥7♦6♠9♣ from early position and was called by Dustin Pros in the cutoff. Bill Kerkaert, on the button, then raised, and both players called.
The river came the A♣, and Benardella stuck in his last chips. Both Pros and Kerkaert called to put him at risk.
Benardella had A♠J♦J♠2♥, Pros showed 6♥6♦3♥2♣ for the low, while Kerkaert had 10♦8♦2♠A♥ for a straight to take the high pot. Benardella, left with nothing, was forced to head for the exit just a few minutes away from the end of the night.
