Brad Owen highlighted a productive mixed-game day this week, reporting two final tables and a win across TORSE and 2-7 Triple Draw events.
Owen wrote that he finished third in a $1,100 TORSE Championship for $5,900, then immediately jumped into a $600 2-7 Triple Draw event and won it for $7,000. It is the kind of schedule grind that is hard to see from the outside: multiple formats, multiple structures, and a quick reset between deep runs.
I played two final tables yesterday - I got 3rd in the $1,100 TORSE Championship for $5,900 to begin the day, then hopped into the $600 2-7 Triple Draw and took it down for $7k!

For Owen, the update is also a signal that summer volume is ramping up. He added that he is looking forward to playing a full schedule this summer, with another year of experience under his belt. Mixed-game series results often fly under the radar compared with no-limit hold'em headlines, but consistent cashes in formats like HORSE variants and 2-7 are a strong indicator of well-rounded, technical form.
Why it matters: content creators who regularly play a public schedule become informal bellwethers for what games are drawing fields and what formats are in the rotation. When a high-visibility player posts results in TORSE and 2-7, it nudges more recreational grinders to try mixed events, and it keeps the conversation broader than just hold'em.
