Unlike the 2-7 that was played in the $50,000 Poker Players Championship, today's event will play with a no limit structure and only be a single draw.
Each player begins with a 1,500-starting stack and will receive three additional add-ons each worth 1,000 in tournament chips.
At any time during the first four levels a player can take their add-on, but must have used them all by the beginning of the fifth level.
Also stated in the structure sheet is that the first player to enter the pot must open with a raise.
The button is in seat seven and the cards are now in the air!
Level: 1
Blinds: 25/25

Welcome back to the 2010 World Series of Poker for Event #14: $1,500 2-7 Draw Lowball!
The corresponding event last year was a $2,500 buy-in and attracted a 147-player field with Phil Ivey beginning his magical run of six WSOP cashes, three final tables and two bracelets with a victory here for $96,367.
With the buy in being lowered to $1,500 and only one new event starting today, a larger field then last year is expected with many notable players expecting to take part such as Jeff Lisandro, Mike Matusow, Justin Smith, Daniel Negreanu and Annette Obrestad just to name a few.
