Today, at 1 p.m. local time, 15 players will return to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas to decide who will reign victorious in Event #56: $2,500 Mixed Triple Draw Lowball. Among those who have survived the record-breaking field of 371 entries thus far are multi-bracelet winners Shaun Deeb and Chad Eveslage.
Both Deeb and Eveslage play a full schedule nearly every summer at the World Series of Poker, resulting in six bracelets in Deeb's prize cabinet, while Eveslage is the proud owner of three bracelets. Today, they will be on the hunt for one more as they return with above-average stacks for the third and final day of the event.
Deeb will unbag 1,270,000 chips, which is good for just under 16 big bets, while Eveslage will start with 1,030,000. Both of them have some catching up to do, however, as the chip lead is in the hands of Patrick Moulder, who bagged up 1,820,000 chips at the end of Day 2.
Meanwhile, Amir Nematinia (1,560,000) and Yuebin Guo (1,530,000) are virtually tied for second place, while Sweden's Oscar Johansson (1,125,000) and Canada's Ian Chan (1,090,000) provide the top ten with some international representation.

The 15 remaining players will divide the majority of the $825,475 prize pool, with them all being guaranteed $8,861. The eventual winner will take home $177,045, alongside the prestigious bracelet.

Levels will be 60 minutes long throughout the day, and a 15-minute break will be had after every two of them. A dinner break is also in the cards, but it has yet to be determined when it will take place.
Day 3 will continue until a winner is crowned, so stay tuned to PokerNews to see if Deeb or Eveslage add to their collections, or if someone else captures their first one and etches their name into the history books.
