2008 WSOP Forecast, Day Twenty Four: Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Low Ball


  Today is Day 24 of the 39th annual World Series of Poker, and the pros won't let up the pressure. It is almost like a feeding frenzy out there in the Amazon poker room at the Rio All Suites Hotel and Casino, and the pros are the sharks. Layne Flack has recently joined the ranks of pros adding to their jewelry, and Mike Matusow or Ram Vaswani is about to join him.



  Today two events kick off, both new to this year's WSOP. Event 40 is a $2,500 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Low Ball event, and Event 41 is a $1,500 Mixed Holdem event.



  Both events are new, and both events also require some new and different strategies over the traditional No Limit Texas Holdem fare. This, also, seems to be a theme this year. The Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Low Ball will draw more pros than the Mixed Holdem, and more of the older pros as well. We predict you will see the younger, internet based pros headed for the tables of Event 41, and the more established, live pros headed for the tables of Event 40.



  Here is another prediction: if Mike Matusow did not just become the first multi-bracelet winner of the year, the next one is going to come out of the Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Low Ball.
