Day 46 of the 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas was another day full of fast-paced poker action at all stakes from the $50k high roller down to the $1,500 mixed game events.
Most of the day’s focus was on the Event #81: $10,000 WSOP Main Event World Championship where Day 6 played down to 59 survivors.
One bracelet was awarded as well. Sascha Wilhelm won it, taking down Event #86: $1,000 Mystery Bounty Pot-Limit Omaha. Although he knocked out nearly 20 players over the course of the Mystery Bounty tournament, he didn’t manage to hit a bounty bigger than $2,000.
Still, he will be happy with his win of $282,290, which represents his biggest career score to date.
Cheong Pulls Off Massive Slow Roll in the $50k High Roller

Event #92: $50,000 High Roller No-Limit Hold’em kicked off today with 150 entries joining the field. With late registration continuing on Day 2, there is still room for this event to beat last-year’s record of 176 entrants.
Joseph Cheong leads the fields with 3,350,000 as he chases his second bracelet. You don’t always make friends on the way to the top, and Cheong certainly upset his opponent David Coleman with a controversial slow roll in one of the biggest hands of the event so far.
With 855,000 in the pot and a river of J♣J♥10♦2♥J♦, Coleman moved all in from the small blind for a little over 1 million in chips. Cheong spent a while in the tank, even going so far as to use a time extension before finally calling.
After a tank like that, Coleman was confident of his full house with Q♣Q♠ in the hole. Unfortunately, Cheong rolled over the K♠J♠ for rivered quads.
“What the fuck was that?” Coleman asked.
“A slow roll,” Cheong replied as he stacked his now-massive pile of chips.
Both Coleman (who reentered) and Cheong will be back on July 13 at 1 p.m. local time for Day 2 of this event.

Day 3 of Event #88: $10,000 Eight Game Mixed Championship ended up lasting for more than ten hours of play over the course of seven levels.
With just 22 players returning at the start of the day, the plan was to play down to a winner. However, as the day dragged on, it became clearer that the players would need another day of play to close the deal.
Anderson and Ishibashi played heads up for an hour until an exhausted tournament director called it quits, asking them to return tomorrow to play down to a winner. At close of play, two players remain, Calvin Anderson with 7,545,000 in his stack and Dai Ishibashi who is playing at a disadvantage with just 3,905,000 in his stack.
The pair will resume play at 2 p.m. local time on July 13.

What to Expect on Day 47 of the 2024 WSOP
![WSOP Chips](https://luckiestgamblers.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/2024-wsop-day-46-joseph-cheong-slow-rolls-the-high-rollers-6.jpg)
July 13 is the 47th Day of the 2024 WSOP. It is also Day 7 of the Main Event. While the remaining 59 players in that event battle it out for another five levels, three other events will play down to a bracelet, two new events will start, and two others will play through their Day 2s.
Event #91: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. (8-Handed) and Event #90: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed will be playing down to a winner on Day 47. That could change if those events go the way of Event #88, which was supposed to finish on Day 46, but held on long enough that heads up play will finish on Day 47 too.
Event #89 and Event #92 will both play out their Day 2s, the former combining its Day 1a and 1b fields.
The two new events on Day 47 will be Event #93: $777 Lucky 7’s No-Limit Hold’em (7-Handed) and the prestigious Event #94: $10,000 6-Handed No-Limit Hold’em Championship. Both events are scheduled to take three days.
