Matt Glantz, Chino Rheem Among Big Stacks Entering Day 2 of $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo Championship
The action continues at the 2024 World Series of Poker today, with the continuation of Event #10: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship (8-Handed). The first nine levels are in the books at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas, where Scott Seiver led the pack after Day 1.
A total of 171 entries were recorded on Day 1, leaving last year’s total of 212 in sight as late registration remains open for the first level of the day. New entries will join the 104 surviving players at 1 p.m. local time to resume the battle in this championship event.
Seiver worked his way to the top of the chip counts bagging 296,500 on the opening day, but has plenty of company giving chase. Among the notable names inside the top ten are Matt Glantz, Chino Rheem, Ray Henson and Damjan Radanov.
