Event #49: $3,000 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed kicks off today at 3 p.m. Viatcheslav Ortynskiy is the reigning champion of the event; he bested a field of 580 players to win his first gold bracelet and the $344,327 first-place prize in last year's WSOP. That final table also included bracelet winner Randy Ohel, who took third.

This uniquely-structured event is scheduled to last three days with Day 1 being held in the Amazon room at the Rio. For the $3,000 buy-in, players will receive 15,000 chips and levels will last 60 minutes. Late registration is open through eight levels of play and will close at approximately 12 a.m. Day 1 includes 10 levels of play with 15-minute breaks every two levels.
