Brian Hastings made history by winning his sixth WSOP gold bracelet in the $10k Limit 2-7 Lowball Triple Draw Championship. Hastings' victory earned him a substantial prize of $292,146. This win places him in an elite group of players who have achieved six WSOP gold bracelets, including Daniel Negreanu, Chris Ferguson, TJ Cloutier, John Hennigan, Jeff Lisandro, Layne Flack, Ted Forrest, and Jay Heimowitz.

Hastings' journey to the top was not without challenges. He faced off against some of the game's greatest names, including Phil Hellmuth and Shaun Deeb.
