£5,000 Pot Limit Omaha Event Commences

Event Three of the WSOPE 2009 is about to get underway. Players are slow to take their seats for the noon kickoff, and the announcement just came ringing out, "I know the structure's so good you don't feel like you have to turn up until four or five o'clock, but please, make your way to your seats now!"

Players start with 10,000 chips in this event, but have another 10,000 ready and waiting (and symbolised by a little blue chip) in case of early felting or just if it's wanted for that comfortable feeling which comes with an early big stack (blinds start at 50/100), which has to be taken within the first three levels.

The dealers are placing the late-comers' stacks in front of their seats, and it looks like they mean it this time - "Shuffle up and deal!"
