Since 2023, Santhosh Suvarna has battled against the best players in the world. His fearless attitude, combined with his affable nature, has propelled him to over $20 million in career earnings, with the vast majority coming in just the last three years.
Fast forward to 2026, and Suvarna is now the first Indian to win three live WSOP bracelets. Here, PokerNews takes a look back at his WSOP history and how he's come to be a recurring fixture in these big buy-in events.
Ethan "Rampage" Yau hasn't made much noise in the tournament streets at the 2026 World Series of Poker, cashing just twice so far this summer. But while the bracelets have proved elusive, the poker vlogger has been printing money in the biggest cash games in Las Vegas.
The WSOP bracelet winner is in the middle of the hottest run of his career on Hustler Casino Live. Over his last three appearances on the streamed high-stakes game, Yau has piled up more than $1.3 million in profit, including a $707,000 win on June 19. Combined with scores of $302,000 and $316,000 earlier in the month, Rampage has turned three sessions into a seven-figure heater.
Despite just two WSOP cashes to his name this summer, Yau has more than made up for it under the dimly lit lights of HCL, where the biggest pots have been going his way.
The 2026 World Series of Poker rolls on June 20 with Event #58: $1,500 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw, bringing one of the most technical mixed-game formats back to the schedule. This draw game favorite gives players the chance to compete for a WSOP gold bracelet in a format that rewards patience, precision, and experience.
Well-known among mixed-game specialists, 2-7 Triple Draw offers a different pace compared to no-limit events, with limit betting and multiple drawing rounds creating plenty of strategic depth. With solid field sizes and a respected place in the schedule, this event continues to attract players who enjoy a more calculated style of poker.
Play gets underway at 2 p.m. local time. Players start with a 25,000 starting stack and 40-minute levels on Day 1. Late registration is open for nine levels, until about 8:45 p.m., allowing players to enter during the early stages of play.
Those advancing will return for Day 2 on Sunday, June 21, where level times increase to 60 minutes as the field continues to shrink. Traditional PokerNews coverage will begin on Day 2.
The event is scheduled to conclude on June 22, with the final table playing down to a winner.
The $1,500 2-7 Triple Draw is a key event for mixed-game players looking to showcase their skills in a specialist format. While the buy-in keeps it accessible, the field is often filled with experienced players who understand the nuances of draw games. It offers a different kind of challenge compared to no-limit events, making it a respected stop on the WSOP schedule.
In 2025, Aaron Cummings made it back-to-back victories in this event, a rare achievement at the WSOP. He topped a field of 635 entries to claim his second consecutive title and $151,172, showing consistency in a format where edges are often small.
Cummings entered the final day seventh in chips, just ten eliminations away from making WSOP history. Despite the pressure, he stayed focused on playing each hand rather than the milestone itself. Reflecting on his run, Cummings said:
"I definitely thought about [going back-to-back]... But it's still a long battle to get there. I was a little short coming into the day, so I knew it was going to be tough. But obviously there's a chance."
Other recent champions include John Monnette (2023), Denis Nesterenko (2022), and David “Bakes” Baker (2021), demonstrating why this is a favorite among experienced mixed-game players.
