Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw of the 2025 World Series of Poker has reached its final day. At noon local time, only five players out of the 532 total entries will return to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas to decide who will be crowned the champion and take home the WSOP bracelet and the top prize of $138,080, the lion's share of the $706,230 prize pool.

Brian Yoon is one of the five who have made it to Day 3. This is Yoon's eighth WSOP final table, and with five bracelets already to his name, his record is more than stellar when reaching this stage in tournaments. However, Yoon has an uphill battle today, because despite his 1,425,000 chips being worth 57 big blinds, he will start as the shortest stack, as the average between the five players is an astounding 106 big blinds.

The chip lead is in the hands of Han Liu. Liu only has a handful of results to his name since his first-ever cash in 2024, and has already secured the best score of his young career. However, he has shown to be able to tangle with the best of the best in no-limit 2-7, securing the lead on both previous days of the tournament.

Liu will sit down with 4,050,000 chips, some 20 blinds more than four-time bracelet winner Brad Ruben's 3,520,000. Two Chinese players round out the final five, with Jun Weng and Yueqi Zhu sitting in the middle of the pack with 2,280,000 and 1,915,000 respectively. Ruben and Zhu have both been drafted for the 25K Fantasy Team NOVIG, while Yoon will be providing a sweat for Team Hoggers.

The final five have already secured nearly 20 buy-ins, with $29,228 being awarded to the first player eliminated on Day 3. However, if the action of the previous days is anything to go by, none of them will be afraid to battle for the six-figure first-place prize and the golden piece of WSOP jewelry that comes with being crowned the champion.

The next level will be 15,000/30,000 (45,000), and all levels will last for 60 minutes, with a break after every two levels.

Day 3 will not conclude until the winner has received his new bracelet, so stay tuned to PokerNews to not miss any of the exciting lowball draw action.
