Welcome To The Biggest Limit Hold'em Tournament of the Year
![[user20283]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Arguably the highest pace game in the world sees its $10,000 Championship event kick off today! The $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship always draws out the cream of the crop and this year it won't be any different.
Last year this event had a $5,000 buy in and was won by Michael Moore who beat a field of $211,743. In total 170 players signed up and Gabriel Nassif, Ronnie Bardah and Todd Witteles were among the finalists.
In 2012 Benjamin Scholl won this event for $207,760, as he beat a field of 166 after making his way through a very tough final table with Matt Glantz, Jesse Martin and Jeff Shulman.
The last time this event had a $10,000 buy in was in 2011, when Daniel Idema took it down for $378,642. Idema, one of the best Limit Hold'em players on a year-to-year basis, beat a final table with the likes of Barry Greenstein, Justin Smith and Isaac Haxton to once again show that this game certainly draws an extremely tough crowd.
The next three days will be filled with raising, three-betting, calling, checking and folding, all of which at a very high pace. PokerNews.com will be right there with you as we bring you all the updates of yet another Championship event at the 2014 World Series of Poker.

The Defending Champ is Here
Nível 1
: 400/800, 0 ante
"Are you going to follow me?" Michael Moore asked when we walked past his table.
"How can we not, you're the defending champion," we responded, and Moore smiled.
"I guess it's by default," Moore responded, as he won the $5,000 Limit Hold'em last year.
This is the first time since 2011 the $10,000 Limit Hold'em Championship's hosted, and Moore looks to extend his reign as the winner of the biggest Limit Hold'em tournament of the year.

Limit Hold'em Wizards
Nível 1
: 400/800, 0 ante
We've spotted three players in today's event that could all use 'Limit Hold'em Wizard' as their poker nick name and nobody would bat an eye.
Brock Parker, who won the $10,000 Omaha hi/lo event earlier this series, is a legendary Limit Hold'em player both online under t_soprano and live at the WSOP. Parker won the $2,500 Limit Hold'em in 2009 and made the final table of this exact event in both 2008 and 2010.
Rep Porter has three Limit Hold'em final tables at the WSOP, while Todd Witteles' last two cashes were in Limit Hold'em events. Last year during the $5,000 Limit Hold'em Witteles finished fifth and his only bracelet came in the 2005 $3,000 Limit Hold'em event. That same year he came close to winning another bracelet, as he finished third in the $1,500 Limit Hold'em as well.

A Full House For Joep
Nível 1
: 400/800, 0 ante
Alex Torry raised from the button and Joep van den Bijgaart called from the big blind.
The flop brought out 
and Van den Bijgaart check-raised Torry, who opted to make the call.
On the turn the 
hit and Van den Bijgaart bet, Torry raised and Van den Bijgaart three-bet. Torry called and on the river the 
popped up.
Van den Bijgaart quickly bet again and Torry called. The Dutchman showed 
and with his full house he raked in this pot.
