Welcome to Day 1 of Event #57: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw Championship at the 2021 World Series of Poker. Cards go in the air at 3 p.m. for this prestigious mixed game championship.
Luke Schwartz returns as the reigning champion after winning his first bracelet in the 2019 event. The London-based poker pro survived a field of 100 entrants to beat George Wolff and Johannes Becker in a grueling three-way battle to win $273,336.
The 2021 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw event saw an increase in participants to 122 over 91 runners in 2019, and it remains to be seen if the limit variant will follow the same trend. A world-class field of returning champions and notable poker professionals are expected to take their shot at one of the more coveted WSOP gold bracelets.
