Mixed Big Bet Returns!
Welcome To Event #35: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet, a unique event that combines seven big bet games at The 2022 WSOP at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas.
Players will navigate a rotation of big bet flop or draw games (Big O, No-Limit Hold’em, No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw, Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better, No-Limit Five Card Draw High, Pot-Limit Omaha, and Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw), over three days of action.
This year’s event marks the fifth time it has appeared on the WSOP schedule. Last fall, Denis Strebkov outlasted a field of 212 entries to win $117,898 and his second gold bracelet.
