Wieder hieß es No Limit Hold’em. Beim 13. Event der World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2009 betrug das Buy-in diesmal $2.500 und natürlich waren auch wieder einige deutsche Spieler am Start. So sah man PokerStars Pro Sandra Naujoks, Konstantin Bücherl, Fabian Quoss, Daniel Drescher und auch Full Tilt Pro Markus Lehmann.
1.088 Spieler zahlten das Buy-in, darunter auch viele Pros wie Chris Ferguson, Humberto Brenes, Justin Bonomo, Barry Greenstein, Ted Lawson, Carlos Mortensen, Men Nguyen, Dave Ulliott, Yevgeniy Timoshenko, Tiffany Michelle und viele andere mehr.
Wie gewohnt ging es beim No Limit Hold’em mit dem Ausscheiden ein wenig schneller. So mussten sich Timoshenko, JC Tran und Humberto Brenes bereits früh verabschieden. Auch Barry Greenstein, David Plastik und Sandra Naujoks mussten das Projekt „Bracelet“ wieder verschieben.
Zur Dinnerbreak war das Feld bereits halbiert, aber längst war noch nicht Feierabend. Bis das Ende von Tag 1 erreicht war, mussten sich auch Jonathan Little, Lee Watkinson und Kathy Liebert verabschieden. Liebert war mit gegen angetreten. Zwar kam der König am Flop, aber vier Karo brachten ihrem Gegner das Flush. Eric Seidel versuchte es mit Pocket 6s gegen . Da kam das Ass, keine weitere Hilfe für Seidel und er musste sich ebenfalls ein wenig zu früh verabschieden.
Mit rund 170 Spielern endete der erste Tag, 117 Plätze werden bezahlt. Die Geldränge werden an Tag 2 bald erreicht sein. Auf den Sieger warten $506.700. Doch bis dahin ist es noch ein langer Weg.
