2008 World Series of Poker

Event 6 - $1,500 Omaha Hi-Low Split-8 or Better

So Long From Event 6!

833 started this $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo Event, making it the largest Omaha Hi-Lo field in World Series of Poker history. Thang Luu outlasted 832 other competitors to bring home his first World Series of Poker bracelet.

This was Luu’s fourth WSOP final table. In 2005, Luu finished third in the Employee’s Event. Last year, he finished runner up to Frankie O’Dell in the $2,000 Omaha Hi-Lo event. He used an aggressive strategy to amass chips near the bubble and continued to use that aggressive style to build a stack that eventually overpowered all challengers.

Congratulations to Thang Luu, champion of the $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo event.
