Event #9: $230 Pot-Limit Omaha
Day 1 Started
Event #9: $230 Pot-Limit Omaha start at 3 p.m local time at the Event Center in the Borgata Hotel, Casino & Spa in Atlantic City. Last year’s event attracted 118 entries but the buy-in was a tad higher at $340 to create a prize pool of $35,400.
Tommy Tran was the one walking away with the win for $10,128 defeating Dennis Zollo heads-up. As this is the only PLO tournament in the festival, it is expected that the aficionados of the game will all show up to take their shot for the title and the beautiful BWPO trophy.
Players may enter or reenter an unlimited amount of times during the first 10 levels of the day and a 15-minute break has been scheduled after Level 4, 7, and 10. All levels have a duration of 30 minutes and will get 20,000 chips in their starting stack. The one-day event will crown a winner at the end of it all, and the PokerNews live reporting team will be there to bring you all the action from the floor later today.
