WSOP Main Event: Day 3: 797 Players

They Will Make the Money Today...

Print-icon
 
The World Series of Poker main event is paying 621 places this year, so sometime today the money bubble will burst.

With nearly 60 percent of the field below the average stack of $159,548, we can expect a lot of early action. Over a quarter of the field are under the magic "M" of 10 (10 rounds of blinds and antes), so reaching the money should easily happen before the dinner break around 7:30 p.m. PDT.

(Day 3 is, of course, actually day 7; after four day ones and two day twos, the field is now combined into one group for the remainder of the tournament.)
