160 players in the money at $1,500 NL Shootout.
Thursday, 9 June 2011
The first shootout event of the WSOP has begun with a turnout of 1,440 players now reduced to 160 after a gruelling series of single-table tournaments in which the winners of each table progress to the next round. All 160 winners have locked up $4,998 but tomorrow is where they play for the big money.
