Day One is About to Begin!
Welcome to Day 1 of Event #34: $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em at the 2011 World Series of Poker. Last year's event attracted 3,289 with Jeffrey Tebben taking home the bracelet and $503,389. This is the third of five $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em events in this series and is expected to determine a winner after three days of play.
So far this year numbers have been up in the majority of events here so we are expecting a massive crowd with a slew of notables. We will be playing ten one hour levels today starting at 12:00 p.m. PDT. Jason Somerville won the last $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em event that attracted 3,175 players this past week which was good for a $493,091 payday and the bracelet.
