I was just looking at the WSOP schedule and noticed they have a \”2-7 triple draw lowball (limit) with rebuys\” tournament for $1,000 this year. That seems kind of odd. Most everybody who plays this game is a high stakes player, meaning 200-400 and higher. Why would they have this be the lowest buy-in in the whole tournament? $1,000 to the players that play this game on a regular basis is not enough to entice them to play in this tournament even if it is their favorite game. In addition, it has rebuys — in a limit tournament? — horrible idea. Did they get this confused with 2-7 no-limit?
They had this tournament in the mix about 4 years ago and took it out due to lack of participation. Guess why? It was the same structure they have here.
