Event #38: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Gets Underway Today

Defending Champion Mike Wattel
Defending Champion Mike Wattel

Last year it was Mike Wattel who won his second WSOP bracelet, 18 years after his first, to deny Chris Ferguson in an epic heads-up battle. Twelve months later, the $10,000 Seven Card Stud event will get underway with a whole host of familiar faces expected to take to the felt.

With a field of 88 in 2017 and 87 in 2016, a small but highly talented group of stud players is expected when cards are in the air at 3 p.m. local time.

Here are the results from last year's final table:
