When Level 7 of Day 2d on Saturday concluded, the registration for the 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Main Event had closed, and the exact numbers are now in. A total of 10,043 players have joined the exciting tournament, which created a prize pool of $93,399,900.

When this record-smashing tournament wraps up next week, the final winner shall take home an incredible $12,100,000, the largest first-place WSOP Main Event prize ever in history. No one can tell exactly who that skilled and lucky player will be as the tournament has not even reached the money bubble yet. One thing for sure is it won't be defending champion Espen Jorstad, who was sent to the rails on Day 2abc Friday July 7 when his flopped set ran into a straight.

There are many other previous world champs still standing, including Jamie Gold, Joe Cada, Ryan Riess and 1983 winner Tom McEvoy.

The top 1,507 players will make the money, with the min-cash confirmed to be at $15,000. Those who make it to the final table will secure themselves a whopping $900,000, with seven-figure payouts taking place when only eight players remain.

They will do it again!
 geseco1231/07/2023 16:42:13 GMT
We all hope so, we believe this is good for the poker community, it is very good news to know that every year a new record is being broken for something in particular, the interest of people to play poker is what motivates them to continue making history.
 dule-vu31/07/2023 16:42:31 GMT
Yeah!
 geseco1201/08/2023 20:20:31 GMT
what matters most in this industry is that more people can join the community, the more people join the more benefits for everyone, this game is very good to keep growing, for sure many more records will be broken in the future.
 dule-vu01/08/2023 20:48:25 GMT
Wow!
 geseco1202/08/2023 22:14:33 GMT
I love watching these wsop tournaments, but sometimes time makes me miss some events, but I try to watch the replays over and over again, I love watching big tournaments and this one is no exception.
 dule-vu02/08/2023 22:14:59 GMT
Good for you Thumbs Up
 Gedemonas03/08/2023 00:21:13 GMT
I also like to rewatch old Wsop tournaments, especially if your favourite player did well in it Smile
 dule-vu03/08/2023 04:45:17 GMT
They have lot of hours from this years wsop!

Enjoy in cashout!
 geseco1204/08/2023 04:04:50 GMT
Some of you think at some point to play these tournaments or events that are held every year, I hope you comment about it, do you love to play live poker?
 dule-vu04/08/2023 04:37:09 GMT
Too many words in this threa and much more others!
 geseco1205/08/2023 23:18:00 GMT
hahahahahah, that's right my friend, that's why we are here, to be able to comment on many things that are happening in the world of poker, for sure many more players will enter in the next year, I want to be there someday and live the experience.
 dule-vu05/08/2023 23:18:49 GMT
But to comment same in 3 threads...
 geseco1207/08/2023 01:55:54 GMT
I will keep commenting until I feel like it, you can't be telling me what to comment and what to comment, so you better focus on what you talk about in the forum and not on others, we are here to have a good time.
 dule-vu07/08/2023 02:05:04 GMT
You are boring and just collecting points! Talking same things!
 geseco1208/08/2023 04:16:46 GMT
I have a great time commenting and playing on the platforms recommended by the site, we are all here to earn money right, otherwise we would be somewhere else, at least not much, but I like this site.
 dule-vu08/08/2023 04:20:43 GMT
Boring!
 geseco1209/08/2023 16:45:50 GMT
poker will always be a sport that I will like, I always try to make it so, sometimes like everyone there are times when you have no motivation, but there are keys to be able to have it and continue, good luck to all.
 dule-vu09/08/2023 17:05:57 GMT
As I said in last posts!
 geseco1218/08/2023 04:07:48 GMT
for sure in the next year will have new challenges for the room, and I'm sure it will break many more records, poker is growing every time, and that is thanks to the publicity that is given every year.
 dule-vu18/08/2023 08:06:17 GMT
You are just a spammer and nothing else! To return in such a two old news just to collect 10 points for it and to say same thing in ever post is sick! What a person!
 geseco1221/08/2023 00:13:45 GMT
it seems that you can also comment in other threads, if you want you can comment here or in another, it depends on how you do it, so worry about yourself before being worried about others, my comments are always like that, clear and honest.
 dule-vu21/08/2023 00:15:28 GMT
You jus comment same thing in same threads for 10 points, instead to write in empty news threads! Everything is over weeks ago, what to say new? What a boring man!
