Another day is in full swing here at the Rio in Las Vegas for the 2010 World Series of Poker. Of the six events on tap today, one of them is Event No. 7: $2,500 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball. Last year, Abe Mosseri won this event, taking home $165,521. Having just missed out on the final table of the $50,000 Players Championship yesterday, it is expected that Mosseri will be back to defend his title in this event.
The field last year was made up of 257 entrants and some notable names had impressive showings, including John Juanda, Julie Schneider, Blair Rodman, Nam Le, and Daniel Negreanu. Play is scheduled to kick off at 5:00 p.m. local time and last eight levels before those that are left bag and tag their chips. PokerNews will be right here on hand as we move forward in wrapping another bracelet around a player's wrist for the 2010 WSOP. Stay tuned!
