The $500 Housewarming attracts 20,080 entries

While the nosebleed stars have been taking part in for $50,000 entry charges throughout the corridor from them, the $500 Housewarming commanded a jaw dropping area of 20,080 entries. 

That was throughout 4 beginning flights, the final of which attracted 7,268 entries. That made it the third largest area in WSOP historical past behind the 2019 Big 50 (28,497) and the 2015 Colossus (22,374). 

All of which is an excellent omen forward of the WSOP Main Event, which many predict would be the largest in historical past. 

The eventual champion was Henry Acain who transformed his $500 right into a whopping $701,215 after defeating Jared Kingery heads-up. The match concluded in dramatic style when Acain’s A3o 4 flushed Kingery’s Pocket Aces. 

You can watch the entire remaining desk at no cost beneath:
