If we thought today was long, strap yourself in for a huge day of Pot Limit Omaha tomorrow. These guys are the best of the best. They're not going to throw this away lightly. Expect play to extend until the wee hours of tomorrow morning before a WSOP champion is crowned.
The lineup is packed with Austin and Marcus looking for back-to-back PLO final tables, Williams, Lederer, Greenstein and Arieh all desperate to taste more WSOP gold, and overnight chip leader Noah Schwartz with over 1.2 million chips, looking to go coast-to-coast for what would be a tremendous victory.
It all kicks off again at 1pm tomorrow. If you can't get down to the Rio to watch the action in person, then stay locked into PokerNews as we bring this baby home. Until then, good night!
