The 2019 World Series of Poker International Circuit here at The Star in Sydney is nearing its conclusion and the final gold circuit ring winners of the series will be decided within the next eight days. The $1,650 Pot-Limit Omaha 6-Handed Event is the marquee PLO event of the series and is set to begin at 2:15 p.m. local time this afternoon.
Last year's event saw Danny Huynh (pictured) pick up his first WSOP Circuit ring after defeating a field of 170 players for the first prize of AU$78,548 (US$44,975). Huynh defeated Benjamin Thrulow heads-up after entering the final two with a 4:1 chip deficit. Other notables at the final table included England's Richard Kellett and local's Huss Hassan and Tam Truong.
Players will receive 25,000 starting chips for this year's edition of the tournament. There are 11 45-minute levels on the schedule for the day with 10-minute breaks occurring at the end of every three levels with an extended 20-minute break coming after six levels. One re-entry is allowed and late registration will be open until the completion of the break at the end of Level 6.
