Omaha 8-or-Better
Though the game is printed as just "Omaha" on the structure sheets that have been printed and released by Harrahs, the tournament director has announced that the game will be Omaha 8-or-better.
New Faces Making Waves at the 2007 WSOP
Jason Newburger and David Mitchell-Lolis have combined for over $350,000 in tournament winnings and have each spent some time at the final table.
Both of Newburger's cashes came from final-table appearances, as he finished second in the $2,000 Pot-limit Hold'em event and recorded a fifth-place finish in the $1,500 Pot-limit Omaha tournament.
Mitchell-Lolis has cashed an impressive four times so far this WSOP, including a 4th-place finish in the six-handed $1,500 NL Hold'em event, good for a $123,689 payday.
Look for both players to continue to put up big numbers in the very near future, now that their pockets are a little bit deeper.
