Get Ready for the $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball Championship
Welcome back to PokerNews, the official media partner of the 2024 World Series of Poker and home of live updates from all bracelet events.
Today sees the start of Event #72: $$10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball Championship here at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
This three-day event gets underway at 2 p.m. local time, with late registration open for 12 levels. There will be 15-minute breaks every two levels and no dinner break is scheduled on Day 1. The starting stack is 60,000 chips with the plan for Day 1 to play ten 60-minute levels.
Day 2 starts at 1 p.m. local time Saturday, with players grinding out another 10 levels. Again, 15-minute breaks are planned every two levels, with a Day 2 dinner break after Level 16 (around 7:30 p.m.).
Chris Brewer is the reigning champion of this event. Brewer triumphed over a field of 154, securing $367,599 and his second bracelet (and the second won in 2023).
“I have played a little bit online. I’ve played some big bet mix. I’m super lucky and I have a supportive group of friends. I had Johannes Becker, Scott Seiver, and Dan Zack responding to my questions. Chris Vitch, who was at this final table, talked to me this morning.
"It means so much to me because I think mixed games are kept secret a lot more. It’s more valuable information. I would help them in return, but the information I have to give isn’t as valuable, so it’s so kind that they help me in these spots.”
