Four Players Return for the Semi-Finals of Event #11: $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship
At 4 p.m. local time, four players out of 57 entries are slated to return to play down to a winner here at the 2021 World Series of Poker. The Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino is once again the stage for the semi-finals of Event #11: $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship.
Freshly minted GGPoker Ambassador Jason Koon is in the race to win his first-ever WSOP bracelet. The American will be battling Henri Puustinen in his heads-up match while Dan Zack faces Gabor Szabo.
Zack is the only player who already knows what it feels like to be awarded a WSOP bracelet and will be looking to add another one to his collection. All remaining players have already secured at least $89,787 but the first-place prize of $243,981 is the cash they're aiming for while the runner-up will need to be satisfied with $150,790.
