And Now For Something Completely Different

Back in the UK, seven-card stud and Omaha tournaments, be they hi-lo or not, have become a lost art form, with few, if any, festivals churning out such an event for their hold'em-obsessed customers. However, over here at the World Series, the organizers clearly recognize the importance of these games in the world of poker, and continue to offer them to their dedicated fan base.

Whilst this is, admittedly, my first experience of covering a limit Omaha/seven-card stud hi-lo event (boy, that's a mouthful), I have been subjected to those star-studded HORSE events of past, where you truly need to be on the ball to keep up. Fortunately, we have only two games to juggle today, as opposed to five, so the upcoming event should be a doddle--shouldn't it?
