Day: 1
This concludes the PokerNews partypoker Sunday Live for today. We'll bring you a recap from the WPTDeepstacks Main Event Day 1A later on, taking a look at the survivors and chip leaders.
Jaime Staples is sitting on an above average stack in the WPT Deepstacks Main Event Day 1A, and is the best-positioned partypoker Ambassador in the field.
He is joined by former world champion boxer Carl Froch and Patrick Leonard.
Pot Limit Omaha players are often overlooked when it comes to tournament poker. Not at partypoker where the PLO players have some incredible tournaments to get their teeth into: the PLO Daily Legends.
partypoker's Daily Legends tournaments have proven immensely popular for several reasons. They have reduced a late registration period and limited re-entries (usually just a single re-entry) which levels the playing field. They finish at a reasonable hour, too, without compromising the average stack size. They are genius really.
PLO Daily Legends follow in the same vein except they are all Omaha tournaments instead of hold'em. Buy-ins range from the $2.20 Forge and increase to the $55 Chieftain.
Currently it is Sweden's Anton Herrmann who leads the field on Day 1A of the WPTDeepstacks Main Event.
The tournament clock shows 147 of 161 players remaining, with over three hours still left of late registration.

Modern smartphones are the perfect medium to play online poker on, especially now it’s possible to play on partypoker with their excellent mobile poker app.
Online poker sites invest countless hours and dollars into creating the perfect mobile app for their customers, partypoker included.
The partypoker mobile app is almost unrecognizable from a couple of years ago. You can tell from the second you fire it up that so much thought has gone into the latest incarnation.
Already registered for Day 1A of the WPT Deepstacks Main Event are Ole Schemion, Andrew Black and Angel Guillen.
The tournament gets underway in 45 minutes.
It's going to be another action-packed Sunday at the online felt of partypoker today.
In an hour's time, Day 1A of the WPT DeepStacks Main Event will get underway. This tournament has a $1,100 buy-in and a $1,000,000 GTD prize pool. We'll be keeping a close eye on that one.
Additionally, the $150,000 GTD Grand is underway with some big names in action. Late registration in that one closes in just under two hours.
