Event #35: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. (8-Handed)
Day 1 Completed
After ten hours of mixed-game action, Daniel Mayoh has emerged as the Day 1 chip leader in Event #35: $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. after bagging up 309,000. Just behind him is Bryan Jolly, who managed to end the day with 307,000 by the night’s end here at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
Mayoh is no stranger to poker success, having already won two Aussie Millions rings, with the most recent coming back in 2020. The Aussie also has many mixed-game tournament cashes but only one cash in the WSOP dating back to 2022 when he placed 34th in a Mixed Big Bet event for $4,375.

The remaining 232 players are now bagging and tagging for the evening.
Stay tuned for a recap of Day 1.
The floor has announced that players will complete two more hands before bagging their chips up for Day 2.
A player raised from early position and was called by Shaun Deeb, as well as both of the blinds.
The flop came K♦2♠J♦ and it checked to the player in early position who bet, Deeb called as well as the small blind. The big blind folded.
On the turn was the 7♣ and when it checked to the player in early position, he bet and both Deeb and the small blind called again.
The river was the J♣ to complete the board. All three players checked down, and Deeb announced " king-queen" for top pair and tabled K♠Q♥9♦8♠. Once Deeb tabled his hands the other two players threw their cards into the muck.
