Es ist der Ferrari unter den No Limit Holdem Varianten. Im Six-Handed bestehen nur die wirklich guten Pokerspieler. Und davon scheint es bei der WSOP einige zu geben. In Event Nummer 23, dem $3.000 No Limit Holdem Six Handed zahlten 924 Spieler das Buy In.
Bereits in den ersten sechs gespielten Leveln reduzierte sich das immense Feld um zwei Drittel. Am Ende eines actionreichen Tages verblieben noch 141 Spieler, die sich Hoffnung auf ein goldenes Bracelet machen dürfen.
Am Start auch eine geballte Ladung an deutschsprachigen Spielern: Yannick Braeuer, David Breitfuss, Jonathan Currle, Alexander Debus, Martin Finger, Alexander Hering, Marco Klock, Kilian Kramer, Hendrick Latz, Marco Liesy, Alex Meidinger, Anton Morgenstern, Dominiki Nitsche, Mario Puccini, Marvin Rettenmaier, Samuel Gerber und Florian Langmann.
Den Tag überlebt haben Hendrick Latz auf Rang 125 mit 20.000 Chips und Florian Langmann auf Rang 76 mit 45.300 Chips. Ebenfalls ist Manig Loeser noch mit von der Partie, der als Brite geführt wird. Er befindet sich momentan auf Rang 99. Chipleader ist Jeff Manza mit 275.000 Chips.
Noch richtig gut im Rennen sind Liv Boeree, Eugene Katchalov, Bertrand Grospellier, Roberto Romanello, Jason Mercier, Kyle Weir und der Gewinner des Events von 2006 Paul Kobel.
