$570 Deep Stack No Limit Hold’em (Re-Entry)
Level 3: 75/150 with a 25 Ante
Flight E Entries: 362

Flight E blasted past 300 entries and now closing on 400 with plenty of time to run it higher. Everyone is watching for entry 417, the one that puts Event 9 right on the $1,000,000 prize pool mark.

Ruslan Dykshteyn is back in the same event he won a year ago. He was part of that big field and cruised his way to the final table, taking the lead late and hanging on for a $184,000 payday. That wasn’t the first taste of success for Dykshteyn or the last. He already owned a WSOP Circuit ring before his victory in last year’s big Event 9 and he followed that up by winning the $1,100 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Big 4 event for another $150,000.

Since then, Dykshteyn made another big final table this series when he cashed out in seventh place in the 3,107-entry opening Event 1.
