Brewer, Volpe, and Comeskey Among Those Hunting the $10k Stud Hi-Lo Championship Bracelet
From a starting field of 190, just 13 players survive in Event #75: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better. Each one of them has already locked up a piece of the $1,767,000 prize pool, but all eyes rest on the $415,648 and the WSOP gold bracelet yet to be awarded.
Leading the way is Maxx Coleman (2,430,000) who is hunting for his third WSOP bracelet. Both he and Paul Volpe (715,000) are fresh off of a final table of the $50k Poker Players Championship, looking to better their finishes from that table.
