One Draw, Two Draw, Three Draws, It's Time for the 2-7 Triple Draw Championship!

Webjoker

Welcome to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino and the 2018 World Series of Poker for Day 1 of the Event #44: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship!

The 2018 WSOP is well past the halfway point, and with Event #44, it also means that this will be the last time players will be able to play any form of 2-7 in a tournament setting. Just a few days ago Hahn Tran topped a 356-player field to capture the $1,500 buy-in installment of this tournament for his first WSOP bracelet, and the $117,282 first prize. It's now time for the big dog to take center stage as some of the world's best draw players will be in attendance for this Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship.

In 2017, Ben Yu captured his second WSOP bracelet when he topped the 80-player field and a final table featuring Shaun Deeb, Nick Schulman, Mike Watson, Shawn Buchanan, and Mike Matusow to capture the $232,738 first prize. Robert Campbell, Anthony Zinno, Brian Tate, Mark Gregorich, Konstantin Puchkov, and Adam Owen all fell short of a final table appearance.
