Watch Your Bach: "Gunslinger" David Bach Leads Remaining 22 in Quest for a Bracelet
Only 22 players remain in Event 84: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. coming into Day 3 of the final mixed-game bracelet event at the World Series of Poker at its new home in Bally's and Paris Las Vegas. Today's action is set to begin at 2 p.m. local time.
Leading the field is David "Gunslinger" Bach, the only player with over one million chips in front of him. With over 20 big bets to work with, Bach will look to sling his way to a fourth gold bracelet today. He will face some stiff competition from plenty of talented mixed-game stars who look to stand in his way.
A slew of talented players are not far behind Bach. Tomasz Gluszko (982,000) has near a milion chips himself. Gluszko is hunting his maiden gold bracelet today. Mixed-game specialist Kevin Gerhart (778,000) looks to "save his summer" by adding a fifth bracelet to his collection.
