The third and final day is upon us for Event #29: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship here at the 2024 World Series of Poker. Benny Glaser captured his fifth bracelet in this same event last year and today he finds himself on the verge of taking home a sixth should he be able to defend his title.
Glaser starts the day with the third-largest stack, behind start of day chip leader Danny Wong and six-time bracelet winner Jason Mercier. He has already taken down two WSOP Triple Draw titles but despite his mixed-game expertise, he will face stiff competition as poker legends such as Mercier and Poker Hall of Famer Phil Ivey still remain in the mix among the 13 players to advance to the final day.
