Welcome to Day 1a of the 2019 The Big Wrap!

The PLO Big Wrap is back in Rozvadov
The PLO Big Wrap is back in Rozvadov

At 4 p.m. local time, the King's Casino and Resort in Rozvadov welcomes poker enthusiasts from near and far to showcase their talents in the great game of Pot-Limit Omaha (PLO). For the second edition of the Big Wrap in 2019, four-card specialists will be heading to the biggest poker room once more and may be back in a few weeks time when the 2019 World Series of Poker Europe takes place near the border to Germany.

The flagship event of the PLO festival comes with a buy-in of €2,350 of which €2,200 will go into the prize pool and a guaranteed prize pool of €1,000,000 awaits.

In the April edition, a field of 412 entries emerged to create a prize pool of €1,078,440 and it was Spain's Lautaro Cabrerizo that defeated Finland's Lauri Varonen in heads-up to claim the top prize of €209,221. Among others, Tomasz Kozub also made it to the final table while Yves Kupfermunz fell just short of that and finished in 10th place.

All participants receive 100,000 in chips and both Day 1s are scheduled to play a total of 12 levels of 40 minutes each. There will be a break every three levels and all players can take advantage of two re-entries per starting day. The registration and re-entry period also remains open for the first two levels on Day 2.

The €550 Warm Up attracted a field of 450 entries to create a prize pool of €213,750 and 13 players returned to the final day earlier today with Richard Toth, Jonas Kronwitter, Paresh Doshi and Manfred Ronacher among those still in contention. At the time of writing, there were eight players remaining with Barat Botond, Norbert Burkhard and Giovanni Salvatore already on the rail.

Many of those that made a deep run in the Warm Up are also expected to join the action of The Big Wrap and the PokerNews team will be on the floor to provide all the action from start to finish.
