Today marks the final day of Event #66: $10,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship at the 2024 World Series of Poker. The remaining players will battle it out on the felt until a champion is crowned at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. The winner will receive both the first-place prize of $1,320,945 from the huge $7,542,300 prize pool and the prestigious gold WSOP bracelet.

Out of a record-breaking field of 811 entrants, only five made it through to Day 4, all of whom have locked up at least $315,098. None of the remaining players have gotten their hands on a WSOP bracelet yet, so a victory here could potentially mark the biggest moment in their poker careers.

Leading the pack with 27,085,000 chips is Joshua Adkins of the United States, who holds more than half of the chips in play. A fourth-place finish or better for Adkins would not only mark his largest live tournament score to date but also more than double his total career tournament earnings, according to Hendon Mob. Thanks to his aggressive play during the latter stages of yesterday, he finds himself in an ideal position to possibly secure his first gold bracelet by the end of today's play.

Adkins' closest rival is Elie Nakache of France, with 9,505,000 chips. Prior to this event, Nakache's best finish in a WSOP event was 33rd, with his biggest WSOP cash of $15,000 coming from last year's Main Event. Nakache has already more than quadrupled his largest live score and more than doubled his career live tournament earnings. However, he has a lot of work to do if he wants to turn his first WSOP final table into a victory, as he currently holds only a third of Adkins' stack.

Jonathan Bowers of the United Kingdom sits in third place on the leaderboard with 5,930,000, having been the chip leader after Day 2. Following closely in fourth position is Manh Nguyen, bringing 4,660,000 through to the final day. At the bottom of the counts in fifth place is Oshri Lahmani with 1,425,000, which is good for nine big blinds.
