The March Continues

It's not deja vu in the Amazon Room -- it's just Day 2 of the $10,000 Omaha Hi/Lo World Championship.

Yesterday 212 players took a seat at a table in the Blue Section of the room, hoping to be the one who winds up half a million dollars richer tomorrow night. That was an impressive 18% increase over the 179 who entered this event last year. Lots of familiar faces were in the field, including the absolute newest bracelet winner, Richard Ashby, who barely finished posing for photos in his win in Event 21 - $1,500 Seven-Card Stud before joining the field in this event.

By the end of the night, Eugene Katchalov amassed the biggest chip stack and will start out as unbustable on the first hand of the day today. He's followed by Sergey Altbregin, 2008 champion David Benyamine, Sammy Farha and Alex Kostritsyn.

The bags are out on the tables and the dealers are in their seats. We'll be re-starting play promptly at 3pm local time. See you then.
