Welcome back to the Crown Poker Room in Melbourne, Victoria for our continued coverage of the 2008 PokerNews Cup Australia Championships!

Today, we're talking Omaha -- specifically, Event 3: $240 PL Omaha w/ $100 rebuys. Last year's contest drew 139 runners and was won by Aussie Pro Tino Lechich, who outlasted a final table that also feature Lee 'Final Table' Nelson, Jim Sachinidis, Julian Powell, Barry Carter and Karlos Farah.

The festivities kick off at 7:10 p.m. local time and we expect an all out rebuy frenzy during the first three levels of play. For all your live update needs, keep it locked right here at PokerNews.com.

We're live from the Crown in T-minus two hours.
