Winner to Be Crowned in WSOPC Event #16: $3,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship
The 2020 GGPoker World Series of Poker Winter Online Circuit will determine another champion today as the third and final Pot-Limit Omaha tournament of the festival will play all the way down to a winner. Event #16 $3,000 Pot-Limit Omaha Championship comes with a guaranteed prize pool of $500,000 and kicks off at 6 p.m. UTC (1 p.m. EST) on GGPoker.
All four-card aficionados will receive 25,000 in chips and the blind levels will last 12 minutes each until the final table has been reached. The six-max format features a late registration of three hours and 20 minutes until 9.20 p.m. UTC. During the late registration, all players can re-enter up to three times in order to take another shot at glory.
Once the field is down to the final nine contenders, they will combine to one table and pick any desired seat changes in the order of chips, from lowest to highest. The blinds may roll back to ensure an average of at least 40 big blinds and as of the final table, a fixed amount of hands will be played for each level.
Among the early entries are GGPoker ambassador Felipe Ramos, Richard Gryko, Justin "LappyPoker" Lapka, Rui Ferreira, Wei Zhao, Tomas Ribeiro, Leonid Yanovski, Aku Joentausta, Dorel Eldabach, and Bradley "DrStrange7" Ruben to name all but a few.
