Pot-Limit Omaha
On a heads-up turn of J♦7♠2♥3♦, Nacho Barbero bet 1,700 and Joey Couden called, although there was some confusion about the pot size. "Once it is called, it's accepted action," Jon Shoreman chimed in. They headed to the 6♥ river on which Barbero bet another 2,500.
Couden folded and Barbero double-checked his cards. "Two pair and a flush draw," he said without showing it to anyone before raking in the pot.
New on the table is also Maxx Coleman as the field surpassed 30 total entries.

A-5 Triple Draw
Chad Eveslage, who won the $1,500 edition of Dealer's Choice on Friday, is off to a good start and seated with one of his final table opponents from that event as well
The $1,500 event fifth place finisher Clayton Mozdzen raised in the small blind and got called by Eveslage in the big blind. Each player drew three cards.
Mozdzen bet and got called, then drew one, while Eveslage took two.
Mozdzen continued to bet, again getting called by Eveslage with each player taking one on the final draw.
Mozdzen checked and faced a bet from Eveslage, which induced a fold.

Badeucey
The table started with two players seated and it was Larry Tull who selected Badeucey, which is the game of choice for Chad Eveslage. Both tangled in a small pot that was picked up on the second draw. Tull bet and Eveslage raised for his opponent to call.
Tull discarded two versus one and then check-called a bet. The same action repeated on the final draw and Tull check-called again. Eveslage tabled a 9♦7♠ / 6♥4♠2♦ for a three-card six badugi and a nine-low, which chopped with Tull's made Badugi.
Clayton Mozdzen then arrived to take a seat on the same table.

The first $10,000 buy-in event of the 2023 World Series of Poker gets underway at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. Many of live poker's biggest names and mixed game aficionados are expected to join the action for Day 1 of Event #10: $10,000 Dealer's Choice 6-Handed Championship, which is set to get underway at 2 p.m. local time.
A total of 20 different poker variants are included in the mix and any one of them can be selected every orbit. This includes a mix of flop, stud, and draw games to choose from and a total of ten levels are scheduled for the first of three tournament days. The first six levels will last 40 minutes each while the final four have an increased level duration of 60 minutes each with a break scheduled every two hours of play.
At least two new games have been introduced to the rotation for this year, which was also the case for the Event #5: $1,500 Dealer's Choice 6-Handed as well. The lower buy-in edition came to a conclusion one day ago with the victory of Chad Eveslage, who defeated Andrew "AJ" Kelsall in heads-up play to earn his second WSOP bracelet in a field of 456 entries.
Eveslage didn't enter the Championship version one year ago while Kelsall was among the participants without reaching the money stages. The tournament drew a record field of 123 entries and Ben Diebold defeated Mike Gorodinsky after a brief heads-up tussle of 45 minutes during an unscheduled Day 4.

History of the Dealer's Choice Championship
Seven editions of the ultimate testament of versatility in the world of poker have taken place so far. Six times, the $10,000 Dealer's Choice 6-Handed Championship took place at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino before the first WSOP at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas attracted a new record attendance of 123 entries, generating a prize pool of $1,146,975.
Whether or not a new record will be set in 2023 remains to be seen, but it is certain that Adam Friedman will aim to extend his tremendous track record in the tournament. He earned three consecutive victories between 2018 and 2021, a feat which has been widely considered as one of the most impressive achievements in the history of the WSOP. Friedman didn't make it past Day 1 one year ago, which also applied for many of the biggest names in the mixed games spheres.
