The final six players have taken their seats and the cards have hit the felt. A shiny new WSOP gold bracelet awaits one of them.

Welcome to the third and final day of the Event #34: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw Championship. Yesterday, two-time World Series of Poker bracelet winner Shaun Deeb bagged up the chip lead with 1,125,000, which was over 250,000 more than his closest competitor, Nick Schulman who finished with 865,000.
But this final table is full of studs, so Deeb will have his work cut out for him if he wants to lock up bracelet number three. Bracelet winners Schulman, Ben Yu and Mike Matusow are all looking to add multiples to their bracelet collection while Mike Watson and Shawn Buchanan are looking to follow up multiple World Series of Poker cashes and final tables with their first bracelet.
Of course, there is more than just the bracelet on the line. Everyone playing today will walk away with at least $35,532 for their finish and up for grabs is the first-place prize of $232,738.
