well triple draw lowball is quite an interesting game to play, probably these fellas were just warming up to bigger events and decided that taking a day or two off the usual no limit texas holdem is the way to go. and for Johannes becker it was a day to remember.

Very beautiful this idea with bracelets offered to winners of tournaments. Instead of receiving small cups or another prizes they chose this option which is a good idea. I think these winners Praise in front of his friends with these bracelets. I think i would do the same thing. Congratulations to the player for this performance.

Lowball inverts the normal ranking of poker hands. Triple Draw is played mostly lowball. This means that the weakest hand wins. There are two ways to evaluate. This game or games has some rules that are not in our liking. I do not play thes games. Anyway, congratulations for the winner.
