Glaser and Johansson To Determine Winner in Event #38: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship
An unscheduled fourth day is required to determine a winner in Event #38: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship at the 2023 World Series of Poker. British mixed game expert Benny Glaser and Sweden's Oscar Johansson will return to the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas at 2 p.m. local time to battle for the coveted gold bracelet and $311,428 top prize.
The tournament attracted a total of 130 entries and the final two contenders will share the biggest slice of the $1,209,000 prize pool today. Glaser was in the driver's seat for most of the previous tournament day and returns with 4,940,000 in chips while Johansson has 2,860,000 at his disposal, which represents 14 big bets for the next level.
Day 4 Seating and Chip Counts
| Seat | Player | Country | Chip Count | Big Bets | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Benny Glaser | United Kingdom | 4,940,000 | 25 | |
| 2 | Oscar Johansson | Sweden | 2,860,000 | 14 |
It would be the fifth career bracelet for Glaser, who made his second-ever WSOP cash back in 2015 count when he entered the winner's circle in Event #33: $1,500 2-7 Triple Draw. The Brit, who also has numerous COOP titles in various mixed game variants to his name, has since won another three WSOP bracelets and cemented his status as one of the most versatile players on the international poker circuit.
However, it won't be an easy feat since Johansson finished as the runner-up in Event #29: $1,500 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw back in 2018 and will certainly aim to finish one spot better this time around. It would be the first WSOP gold bracelet for the Swede, who has five WSOP cashes to his name so far.
The action will recommence in Level 25 with blinds of 50,000-100,000 and limits of 100,000-200,000. All levels last 90 minutes each until a champion has been crowned. Stay tuned right here on PokerNews to find out who will become the latest WSOP gold bracelet winner.
