Deuce to Seven Draw has been a part of the World Series of Poker almost since its inception. The single draw variation of the game was, for many of the top players, the most desired bracelet to win, other than the Main Event, before the advent of the $50,000 HORSE tournament.

In recent years, with the increasing popularity of Deuce to Seven Triple Draw, it too has become a bracelet event.
