Welcome back to PokerNews, the official media partner of the 2024 World Series of Poker and home of live updates from all bracelet events.

Today sees the start of Event #6: $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em Championship here at Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas, one of the most prestigious events on the WSOP schedule.

This three-day event gets underway at 12 p.m. local time. Registration closes prior to the first draw, or will sell out once it reaches 64 entries. The schedule for Day 1 has players playing two rounds, with possible byes in Round 1.

Matches will take place at 12 p.m. and 5 p.m. with breaks between matches. The starting stack is 150,000 chips with surviving players resuming on Day 2 at 12 p.m. where they will play two more matches, again at 12 p.m. and 5 p.m.

Last year's event saw 64 players generate a prize pool of $1,504,000. The winner was Chanracy Khun who defeated poker legend Doug Polk heads up to win $507,020 and his first WSOP bracelet.

"I feel really good. I'm relieved," he told PokerNews. "And it's tough to find any words, but it's a mix of emotions. But at the end of the day, I'm really, really glad it's over."

Over the years, this tournament has attracted some of the best heads-up players the world has ever seen and has had numerous noteworthy champions:
