The 331-entrant field in Event #91: $3,000 H.O.R.S.E. is down to the final two players, with Ryan Miller bagging 9,300,000 in chips to lead Leonard August and his 3,925,000 in chips. On the scheduled final day, 18 players returned in the final mixed game event of the 2023 WSOP, and after Andre Akkare (16th), Andrew Barber (14th), Chad Eveslage (12th), and Nick Guagenti (9th) were all eliminated, the final table of eight was set.
Todd Brunson and Kevin Gerhart were the first two casualties before Noah Bronstein exited in sixth place. Andrew Yeh was the next to fall in fifth, before Barbara Enright was eliminated in fourth. After Calvin Anderson was eliminated in third place just after midnight local time, August held a slender lead over Miller entering heads-up play. Miller struck early and took the lead and then surged ahead to put August on the ropes. Eventually, August clawed all the way back to even, and just after 2 a.m. play was halted for the night with players returning on Tuesday, July 18, at 2 p.m. to conclude their match where the winner will take home $208,460 in prize money. For August, this is his best WSOP result in terms of place and prize money already, while Miller is looking to win a second WSOP bracelet after winning Event #63: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo Championship earlier in the series.
