Is Another Lowball Bracelet in the Cards for Larry Wright?
Larry Wright recently sat down and quickly made 7x6x4x3x2x in one of the first hands of the day, joking that he was using up his run good too early after receiving no action.
Wright, who won his first WSOP bracelet in this same event in 2012, recounted a pivotal hand while deep in the tournament. Wright had made number three (7x6x5x3x2x) and was facing a massive overbet from 2004 WSOP Main Event champion Greg Raymer.
Feeling like something was off regarding Raymer's bet size, Wright opted to just call instead of raise. Raymer had 7x6x4x3x2x for number two and won the hand but Wright still had chips in a spot where he was surely meant to go broke, and eventually went on to win the tournament for his first WSOP bracelet and $101,975.
Time will tell if a second bracelet is in the cards for Wright, who has a little over a starting stack in the early goings of this event. Meanwhile, Raymer also just sat down at this event.
