We're up to 140 players in today's event, a fairly big number considering the fairly big buy-in which amounts to an even bigger dollar figure. Pot Limit Omaha's seen a surge in popularity online live, as Hold'em experts try their hand at a game with double the cards (and therefore double the fun). Add the Europeans and fairly small number of Americans who've been playing this game for years and you get a mixed bag of entrants who are definitely going to be creating action right from the start.

A couple of late arrivals: Mike Matusow, who's just popped in to James Akenhead's left (joining Davidi Kitai, Andy Bloch, and Michael Greco on what looks to be a pretty interesting table), and Tony G, who's sat opposite Annette Obrestad.
