Jun 05, 2019
The 2019 WSOP Big 50 event has set the record for the largest field in live tournament poker history. The event attracted an astounding 28,371 entries, blowing away the previous record of 22,374 set by the 2015 Colossus. The $500 buy-in event created a prize pool of more than $13.5 million. Nearly a week after the first cards were dealt in this event, the field has finally combined under one roof. Card Player TV caught up with Amit Makhija, one of the larger stacks early on day 3, to get his thoughts on this massive event.
