Hrabec won his first bracelet in the $333 No Limit Hold'em - Triple Treys (Online Bracelet Event #5) at the 2024 World Series of Poker. [4]

Hrabec makes his 4-bets intentionally large, sometimes as much as 3 times the former bet (3-bet), and can so benefit - force a fold and win pots uncontested - from a too small or to frequent 3-bet but can also get value when he has a strong hand.[ citation needed ]
