Dia 1 Começado
Welcome to Day 1 of Event #31: $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw at the 2021 World Series of Poker. Cards go in the air at 3 p.m. for this exciting lowball variant.
Considered by many to be one of the purest forms of poker, players have to rely on their instincts to be successful in no-limit 2-7 single draw. There are two betting rounds, before and after the draw, in which players can take up to five cards or “stand pat” and take none. The objective is to make the lowest hand possible, and the ace is considered a high card in this deuce-to-seven game. The variation lends itself to a lot of bluffing and players will need to make accurate reads on their opponents to find a deep run.
The 2019 edition of this tournament crowned Israel’s Yuval Bronshtein with his first WSOP gold bracelet and $96,278. The record-high field of 296 runners was a clear sign of the game’s growing popularity and a high-profile field is expected in 2021.
