Benny Glaser's remarkable 2025 WSOP is continuing this Saturday as the seven-time bracelet winner has reached the final table of Event #56: $2,500 Mixed Triple Draw Lowball.

The British pro, who has already taken down the $1,500 Dealer’s Choice and $1,500 Mixed: PLO Hi-Lo 8 or Better at this year’s series, will now be hoping to complete a hat trick of bracelets and strengthen his case for the 2025 WSOP Player of the Year title.

The event drew 463 entries and will award $208,552 to the winner. Play is scheduled to conclude today, Saturday, June 21.
