Final Day of Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'Em
The final day of Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'Em is about to get started at 12:00 p.m. local time. The action will be taking place inside the Brasilia Room of the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino.
When play resumes, Melissa Gillett will be leading the remaining 23 players with 3,443,000 chips. Her next closest opponent is Aditya Agarwal with 1,286,000 chips, and Billy Rodgers rounds out the top three with 1,277,000 chips.
The blinds will continue at 6,000/12,000 with a 2,000 ante for another 30 minutes, and will then be increasing every hour. There will be a 20-minute break after every two levels and a dinner break after the sixth level around 7:00 p.m. The action will conclude once a winner is crowned, so the players should prepare for a long, grueling day.
