With just several days left of the 2023 World Series of Poker, there is still one championship event yet to be played – the prestigious $10,000: 6-Handed No-Limit Hold’em Championship. Last year, Gregory Jensen overcame a stacked 394-player field to take down his first and only gold bracelet and the $824,649 first-place prize. We expect the field to be even larger this year, as has been the case in the majority of this year’s events.

The tournament is sure to attract some of the best No-Limit Hold'em players in the world and especially those who prefer the six-handed format, which generally equates to more hands being played and thus more action. Here's a look at some of the previous winners of the event:

Day 1 is scheduled for ten 60-minute levels, with players getting a 15-minute break after every two levels. Late registration will remain open until the start of Day 2. Lastly, the event will be played in a freezeout format, meaning no reentries are allowed.
