Welcome back to PokerNews' coverage of the 2018 World Series of Poker. Today, Event #25: $1,500 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better kicks off with a 3 p.m. start. Stud poker has history that dates back to the American Civil War where soldiers on both sides would play a variation of five-card stud. But the game has since evolved into the variations that we see today.
This tournament features a variation of stud where players are dealt seven cards, four up and three down, and players compete for a high pot with their best five-card hand, and a low pot with their best five-card hand where only cards eight or lower qualify. The betting order is determined by the best high poker hand, while the lower shown card will always be the bring-in on third street.
Last year, it was Ernest Bohn who won this event, taking down a field of 595 players for the first-place prize of $173,228. Not only was that Bohn's first-ever World Series of Poker bracelet win, it was also his first-ever cash. Bohn, who was previously in the U.S. Navy, hasn't put up a World Series of Poker cash since then, so we'll see today if he returns to defend his title and takes another shot in the $1,500 Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better event.
Action is set to begin in just a few hours, so here are a few things to take note of for this tournament. Players will play 10 one-hour levels today, with 15-minute breaks after every two levels. There will be no dinner break on Day 1. Players begin with a starting stack of 7,500 chips and the betting limits begin at 100/200. Registration for this event is open for eight levels, so roughly until about midnight, and the plan is for this event to last for three days.

Picking up the action on fifth street, the player who drew the led out with the betting lead. Greenstein called as did the other opponent. On sixth street, Greenstein picked up the lead, but checked and called a bet from the player with the on sixth. The other player called too.
On seventh street, Greenstein led out and both of his opponents called. Greenstein showed 
for three fives but no low, but his opponents couldn't produce anything better, so he scooped the entire pot early here on Day 1.

Last year at the World Series of Poker, local grinder Ron Ware emerged atop a field of 472 to win his first bracelet in Event #21: $1,500 8-Game.
To do so, he had to get through Mike Ross in a back-and-forth heads-up battle. Lo and behold, those two are seated next to each other once again in this very tournament. They're in Seat 7 and Seat 8 at Table 451. According to Ross, Ware let him have the first pot they played against each other to make up for taking away the bracelet.
