It will take an extra day at the 2024 World Series of Poker to decide a champion in Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha. The final ten contenders will return to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas at 1 p.m. local time, where Sascha Wilhelm holds the chip lead after bagging more than 70 big blinds.

Right behind Wilhelm sits Bryce Yockey, who is eyeing another shot at a second WSOP bracelet of the series. The American pro secured his second career gold bracelet earlier this summer with a win in Event #8: $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha (8-Handed). Yockey then made a deep run in Event #58: $50,000 Poker Players Championship (7-Handed), ultimately finishing in the runner-up position.

Yockey returns in second spot as the only other player with more than 30,000,000 chips, good for 68 big blinds. Adam Adams rounds out the top three on the leaderboard with just over 25,000,000 in his stack.

The event was scheduled to finish on Thursday, but the field of?4,280 entrants in this inaugural bracelet event proved too big. The total prize pool of $3,616,800 included several big mystery bounties, all of which were snapped up on Day 2. One last $5,000 bounty and nine bounties of $1,000 are all that remain for the final day.

Each of the remaining players have locked up $20,820, with sights set on the top prize of $282,290 and the WSOP bracelet. One other player in the field can add to his collection, as Robert Cowen has a chance at claiming his third bracelet. Cowen has some ground to make up, sitting with just six big blinds when play resumes. Only Juan Lapido has a shorter stack, with the field sitting one elimination away from the unofficial final table.
