Event #10: $1,000 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold'em Begins at 11 a.m.
Welcome back to the 2021 World Series of Poker, where today promises to be full of fast and furious action.
The $1,000 Super Turbo Bounty No-Limit Hold'em Event begins at 11 a.m. PT and will play down to a winner tonight. With blinds increasing every 20 minutes, there is sure to be plenty of all ins and a flurry of bustouts as players chase not only the $300 bounty placed on every entrant but also a coveted WSOP gold bracelet.
This event has been a fixture on the schedule since 2017. In 2019, 2,452 players entered to create a prize pool of $1,471,200. It was Daniel Park who emerged the champion after 17 hours of action, defeating Erik Cajelais heads-up to win his first bracelet and $226,243.
Notables to make a deep run two years ago included James Obst, Dan O'Brien, and Dan Zack. Expect a similar mix of established pros and amateurs taking their shot at WSOP glory.
Players will begin the day with 20,000 chips. There will be a 20-minute break every six levels and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 21. This is a freezeout event, so if a player loses all of their chips that will be the end of their tournament.
The tournament will likely attract a field of thousands. At the end of the day, there will be only one as the event lives up to its turbo moniker.
