The World Series of Poker revealed earlier this week that the number of confirmed entrants for this summer’s BIG ONE for ONE DROP is now up to 33.

The BIG ONE for ONE DROP, which will run from June 29th to July 1st, will have a $1,000,000 buy-in and a cap of 56 players. Assuming that the tournament hits its cap (and tournament organizers are optimistic this will happen), the winner of the event will walk away with a payday in excess of $20,000,000. The tournament is also a World Series of Poker bracelet event.

This will be the second time that the tournament has run - the first took place in 2012 and was won by Antonio Esfandiari ($18,346,673).
