WSOP GGpoker
WSOP GGpoker

The half-way point has already been reached in the 2020 GGPoker World Series of Poker Online Bracelet Events and the festival is setting the eyes on the highlight of the series. However, until everything wraps up in three weeks from now, there are plenty of WSOP bracelets to be won on the GGNetwork.

One of them is available in Event #62: $1,500 Pot Limit Omaha as mixed game aficionados from all over the world are expected to join the action as of 6 p.m. UTC (2 p.m. EST). All players start with 25,000 in chips and the levels until the final table will last 15 minutes each.

During the registration period, which lasts for the first three and a half hours, all players can re-enter twice if they are unfortunate enough to bust and plenty of action can be expected right away as the event features a six-handed format. However, the final table will be set once nine players remain and that's when the real names of all contenders will be revealed, as has been the case throughout the entire festival so far.

Six players have already won a PLO bracelet during the festival so far and they can be found below.

5 Things You Don’t Know About the WSOP Online on GGPoker

Level 5 : 300/600, 0 ante

Now through the first part of September, the WSOP Online will be exclusively on GGPoker, so whether you're playing on the client for the first time or you're a seasoned online pro, we thought we'd bring you five things you didn't know about the WSOP Online on GGPoker.

  • 1. STAKING on DAY 2:
    Poker fans and players can now buy a piece of their favourite player's action or sell their own should they survive Day 1 of phased tournaments.
  • 2. Convert Multiple Event Tickets into T$
    After the series has finished, your unused tickets will be exchanged for T$ that you can use to enter any tournament on GGPoker
  • 3. Pick Your Own WSOP Event
    When the WSOP Online schedule on GGPoker was announced, the poker community was intrigued to see a new type of bracelet event announced! Three 'People's Choice' events were announced, with the formats and buy-ins yet to be announced.
  • 4. Best Stack Forward
    Any player that makes it to the end of a Day 1 with a stack is allowed to take part in additional Day 1s if they want to, providing they have not exceeded the maximum number of re-entries.
    However, if a player finishes multiple Day 1s with chips, only the highest chip stack will go to Day 2.
  • 5. Take Advantage of Bubble Protection
    GGPoker's popular Bubble Protection is available throughout the WSOP Online. It's available for all non-phase events with buy-ins less than $999. This means that if you register before the start of play and go on to bubble the tournament, you'll receive your buy-in back.

Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 3,000 from the cutoff and was called by Sergey "EvPlo" Verkhoturov on the button and Luke Schwartz in the small blind. They checked the {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} flop and Schwartz check-raised the {3-Diamonds} turn from 10,200 to 40,800. Only Verkhoturov stuck around and called all-in for 22,811 when Schwartz bet the {6-Diamonds} river.

Schwartz tabled {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for a flush and Verkhoturov hit the rail with {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{3-Spades} for two pair.

One hand later, Schwartz got into a raising war with Mostafa "bluffe" Haidary and let go on the flop to forfeit a portion of his profit.
