Two days are in the books in Event #9: $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Championship, with the field set to play down to a final table of six today on Day 3.
The 169 entries have been trimmed down to just 22, all of whom have their eyes on the $417,921 first-place prize. The player who has gotten closest to amassing all of the chips at this point is three-time bracelet winner Eli Elezra. Elezra has shown off his chops in 2-7 triple draw and two stud variants in the past, but he has yet to capture gold in Omaha hi-lo. He has a leading stack of 858,000 going into the penultimate day.
However, as should be expected in any $10K championship, plenty of stiff competition remains. Jesse Martin, Chris Bjorin, Paul Volpe and Rob Mizrachi are among the bracelet winners remaining in the field.
Another still in the hunt is fan favorite Mike "The Mouth" Matusow. Though he totes one of the shortest stacks at present, he's sure to keep things lively at the table, and if he builds up some momentum, it could be a fun ride for everyone.
Matusow's 234,000 still represents about 10 big bets heading to 12,000/24,000 limits, and that's indicative of how the tournament remains fairly deep. The average stack is more than 15 big bets, which means there's plenty of play left for nearly everyone in the field.
The plan today is to play out one-hour levels until just six remain to play on the live streaming table tomorrow. Keep an eye here on PokerNews to see who those six will be.
Nível: 21
Limites: 12,000/24,000
Ante: 0
