The WSOP is always looking to add tournaments to their schedule that interest players, and with this PLO8 Championship being one of the new tournaments for 2017, the turnout didn't disappoint. A total of 207 players took to the felt to create the biggest field for a $10,000 buy-in tournament this WSOP, and with it saw the creation of a $1,945,800 prize pool. The final 32 players will make the cash, each guaranteed $14,786 payday while $511,147 will be awaiting whoever can top this field and collect the WSOP gold bracelet.

After a full day of play on Monday, the 207 starting field was reduced to just 116 players that saw Dario Sammartino finish as chip leader after bagging an impressive 294,300. Sitting right on his heels are Ryan Miller (228,700), Sean Remz (224,700), Josh Arieh (212,500), Tommy Chen (209,200) and Joe Tehan (200,300) as the only other players to quadruple their starting stacks.

There is still a plethora of multi-time WSOP bracelet winners in the field including Scott Clements, John Monnette, Marco Johnson, Viacheslav Zhukov, Shaun Deeb, Jason Mercier, David Bach and Chris Ferguson. Current WSOP Player of the Year leader Ray Henson also bagged an impressive chip stack with 169,200 and will be looking to add to his fantastic WSOP thus far that includes a trio of final table finishes, one of which was a third place in the $1,500 PLO8.
